Tomorrow is a "Reading Day"

Meaning we don't have class. Thank goodness; I mean it's really about time they gave us a breather. We've already had a staggering four days of classes this semester and that was really pushing us all over the edge.

Also, fun fact: I know that many of you were flabbergasted, as was I, that a ship like this could possibly fit up the Amazon river. Well I learned today that areas of the Amazon are over 50 miles wide. So not only is this entire ship sailing up the Amazon, but I probably won't even be able to see the shore on either side while we are doing so. I still can't decide if that is super cool, or slightly disappointing, as I was looking forward to sailing through the jungle.
