I have left the Amazon but has the Amazon left me?

It seems I haven't left the Amazon, the temperature outside is almost as warm as Manaus so adjusting wasn't very difficult at all. Arriving back at heathrow just minutes after the tube and bus bombings brought me back to earth literally. I still can't fully understand how desperate some people must be to do such a thing. Is it really for the righteous cause they believe they have, or the fact they deep down are aggressive and violent people and this gives them opportunity to 'legitimately' give vent to their feelings. I don't know. What a waste when so much good could be done in this world.

it also seems the Amazon hasn't quite left me as I'm still not feeling 100% after my bout of illnes on the way back to manaus from upriver. My few days in Miami were useful just to give me a rest but I didn't eat much, nor do very much besides try and keep cool. It was nice to get home and catch up with family and friends which I'm still in the course of doing. Viewing the photo's again it seems as if it was someone else who saw and did what I did. I will certainly treasure some of these wonderful sunsets, which yet I have been unsuccessful at posting but I will give it another go!
