On the way to Pombos, one of the girls that was with us, was frightened when faced with a big spider. We approached to observe it, was when it decided to climb quickly on one of our friends. I had the intention of removing the spider without causing any harm to both of the. Then, the spider came down immediately and headed her way towards the woods."
