DR: We are going to visit Vilcabamba. I stand in front of the small shack with lots of other tourists. I get two packages of folded raincoats in see-through bags. I'm picking one that fits. I put it on over my backpack and then take it off, because I realize I didn't take my camera out of the backpack.
I walk back to some kind of a tunnel/cave, that's full of people milling around. Plants all over the place, even hanging from walls. It's not dark, colors are bright. Has a feel of a restaurant. As I brush by some plants, I feel a sting on left forearm and right upper arm. I tell someone "you know what to do" and we walk to a rock where I sit down. Another girls puts her hand under mine to comfort me while the other person is cutting the poison out with a knife from my right upper arm.
