Early morning hike

[Filmed in Brazil, SA]
David and I got up at 4:00 a.m. on Monday morning to go beyond the city limits, across some cattle ground, through a small bit of marsh vegetation, and finally to the train tracks that lead to the city of Alvares Machado, which lies behind ours.

After taking a quick tour of one side of the city, we headed back home following the same route, only this time using the dirt road that ran parallel to the train tracks.

Sp this video spans the hiking trip. From 4:00 to 9:40 a.m. Dave got in near 4 hours of sleep previous to the outing, whereas I had 2 hours. We were sore and cranky for the rest of the day. :^)

Hey Dan I'm a bio major and it's a little hard to tell from the video but it appears as if you are right about the skull. Not really sure what kind of wildlife you have in the area but it looks like a coyote skull, just because it's so elongated, not positive though. :)

Hey thanks!! We don't have coyotes around here...but we do have foxes, if that helps. Thanks for the comment! :^)

That was quite the long adventure and I liked that. Are the two of you guys there as exchange students?
