Man on an island, day 366

Made an early breakfast of fruit salad and milk for me and Elizabeth before setting off. I want to reach the downed cargo plane as soon as possible before scavengers carry off the cargo and I don't like the look of this storm that's brewing. What I am planning on doing is moving the cargo piece by piece closer to camp, that way I minimize contact with any less than friendly inhabitants of that village. After a short walk with Elizabeth riding on my shoulders and Belatrix in a carrying bag on my back, we reach the plane. Let's see what has to go first-I want the big metal parts to build my wall up bigger so I grab a piece and I start dragging it back to camp. It's so cute- Elizabeth is trying to push from the back. I give her my cub to hold instead. We make surprisingly good progress and before long we're back at camp. I leave the metal part,Elizabeth and Belatrix safely in camp, work will go much quicker if I don't have to keep an eye on you two the whole time. I head back to the jungle. Wind has picked up and it's starting to rain...
