Jack and Annie travel to the Amazon, encountering army ants, snakes, crocodiles (does the Amazon have crocodiles?), a jaguar, and a monkey who gives them the second object they need to collect in their quest to save Morgan]].

This is the first tree house story where the kids’ desitination might be in the present time, although there is still some time travel since the tree house always returns to the same time that it left, presumably so The Parents don’t worry. In any case. we’ve decided to mark this type of possibly-present-day story as having debatable time travel to distinguish this kind of destination from those in the past or future.
