As they ride down the river in the boat, they spend a lot of time with each other by experiencing new things. “I set there behind a clump of bushes in about six foot of him, and kept my eyes on him steady. It was getting gray daylight now. Pretty soon he gapped and stretched himself and hove off the blanket, and it was Miss Watsons Jim! I bet I was glad to see him.” Huck is starting to enjoy Jims company, trying to avoid his racist views. Huck and Jim continue their journey and their, somewhat, newer friendship.

Pass me along another hunk of fish and some hot corn-bread.” They get immune to the wilderness and they began to realize that they are developing their friendship with each other. They share many interest which aids the entire thing in all.
