Well I call it a village, but it is probably the closest thing to a city for 50 miles. The hotel in which I’m staying for the week is easily the most modern building in the region. It is not much different form any budget hotel in the states. It seems very out of place in this isolated community. It is located right on the river at what appears to be the main pier that all the fishing, crab and squid boats use to unload their catch each morning. Across the river is a small community that I will likely not have time to visit during my stay, but it appears to be very similar to this side of the river, only less developed.

Hi Karl,
Pearl told me about your blog and we are so excited for you. Also, aren't blogs wonderful? Not possible just a few years back. I need to find a map and pinpoint exactly where you are located. Love, Aunt Joanne.
