Interesting report. I guess the high humidity, while not super-comfy, is not a huge drawback. Like, in eastern US summer, there's enough humidity so that one gets pretty sweaty anyway. Personally, I think the heat index exaggerates things sometimes; perhaps more importantly it doesn't account for sun. Maybe Guyana/Suriname gets cloudy in the afternoon, that would help. Good to hear the bugs weren't a big problem. Seeing the rocket launch must have been fun. Speaking of humidity, the Saturn V's Vehicle Assembly Building was so big it would actually rain inside sometimes.
