See the last action by red (me) in game 11931:

Murwiz buys a pampas from the land deck.
Murwiz places a swamp land tile at (12,10).
Murwiz scores 1 point for placing a land tile next to water.
Murwiz places a pampas land tile at (10,11), scoring 6 points for creating a land chain of size 3 or greater.
Murwiz scores 2 points for placing an animal next to water.

Eh? My last action, placing a Pampas tile, should indeed score 6 points for making a land chain. But what's with the "2 points for placing an animal next to water"?

That's a typo in the gamelog, it should read 'land.' You get two points for the land placed at (10,11) since it's next to two waters.

Just to be sure I added up your score and it looks correct:

Markets: 7=>28 pts
Land: 16=>32 pts
Haciendas: 9
Water: 34
Money: 1

Total: 104

Ah, OK. After all these games I still didn't quite grasp the water rule: I thought each land or animal scored one point if it was next to water. I didn't realize it was one point for each water-land and water-animal "junction". But certainly the typo sent me off track.
