QUITO, Ecuador, Feb 3, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) -- Family members fear a British woman on extended vacation in the Amazon has disappeared, the Times of London reported Friday.
Jenny Pope, 50, had already traveled to Chile, Argentina, Bolivia and Peru, She sent her family an e-mail from Ecuador saying she wanted to come home early.
After more than three weeks and no word from Pope, the family has asked Interpol to aid in the search for her.
Chances of Pope showing up looked "very bleak indeed" if international authorities don't make progress in her case, said the missing woman's son, Stefan Pope, 22.
