.:la selva!:.

Well we finally arrived in Mocoron. The province/state here is Gracias A Dios. The entire area is known as La Mosquita. I think it is kinda similar to the aborigine in Australia, but then again I've never been to Australia. The people are sweet and kind. Life is pretty simple here. People wake with the rising of the sun and rest with setting of darkness. Animals roam the streets, if the dirt paths can even be called streets. Cow dung lines the roads as it permeates the fresh air. The diet consists of staples such as rice and beans, platanos and whatever meat can be found. I think that more vegetables need to be incorporated but with the current state of electricity I think the people would have trouble keeping the vegetables fresh. The temperatue is actually rather pleasant. It seems as if the moisture in the air can be rung out like a wet towel. The river provides a nice quick moving current to cool the body down. The bigger village is Puerto Limpira. The woman we're with, Norma Love, says to think of the area as being about a hundred years behind and she's about right. In Puerto Limpira they are installing a sewage system. Of course there is always the ironic satellite positioned next to a wood house on stilts but I suppose technology comes in whatever fashion it does.
