I thought I would put together a
video showing Life on the Rio Dulce.
While on the docks at RAM, every
night when the lights came on, the May flies would descend on us. They were an
absolute pain as every morning we would hear the birds enjoying their breakfast
on Passages as she would be covered in mayflies.
Since Passages was on the dock,
we saw all kinds of boats being taken out of the water and put back into the
water. One of the largest we saw was a motorboat worth over $3 million. It was
quite nerve wracking to watch.
When we were making our way down
to Livingston, it was wonderful to watch how the communities along the river
functioned. We saw many parents taking their children to school in their boats
or canoes.
We enjoyed our time on the Rio
Dulce and hope one day to go back there, as there were so many other places to
see and visit.
The Rio Dulce, like the whole of
Guatemala, is certainly a hidden gem and a country that is worth visiting.
So, until the next update of our
adventure, take care and enjoy whatever you are doing.
Bye for
now.
