Default Re: Ola from Amazonia

For those that may not be familar Manaus a city of about 2 million situated where the Amazon and the Negro Rivers meet. The only road connecting Manaus with another city is the highway to Venezuela. Amazonas is the largest state in Brazil and is 98 percent standing forest. I love to show what life in Amazonia is like. It is incredible place.

Our country place is in Paricatuba which is at the point on the river where it narrows looking up from this picture which is taken from the Ponta Negra in Manaus.



And this is from Paricatuba looking back at the same location and the river front of the Manaus.
