| Squirrel Monkey; In Amazon Forest |
As every single day, with the beautiful morning sunrise, I also wake up along with the sun. By the time we wake up, the trees in the Amazon rainforest were slowly dancing due to the wind blow. The birds were singing with their melodious voices. After viewing some romantic parts of nature, the gang had a morning breakfast. The ship was slowly heading from one bank of the Amazon River to another Bank. On the way, there were some mini motels, and parks as well. Perhaps those are for tourism purposes and other small houses belonging to the indigenous people of that community.
Almost an hour after, we had reached the place where we can swim and saw the pink dolphin’s dancing. Even our guide made a joke saying that the name of the dolphin is Salvador. The beautiful dance that was performed by the dolphins was really astonishing. In fact, I myself was a little bit scared for the first time, this is because it was the first time I was swimming in the river. But later on, I slowly became familiar with the dolphins. After that, our whole team was ready for the forest tour. The forest tour was really incredible. The forest was so huge that, people can easily get lost, but our guide was very good and grew up in that area since he was 15 years old.
First of all, the Amazon forest is divided into two parts; the primary Amazon rainforest and the secondary Amazon rainforest. They are named secondary because the trees over there were primarily cleared down and replanted over again. On the way, we had seen the Manioc flower. Tapioca flour is also another flower we had found while we were in the forest. But we need to know how to cook them correctly because it contains poison. We also saw the banana Arianna, mineral Arianna and various other flora and fauna found in the Amazon rainforest and the Amazon river.
Around 1pm we had lunch, and after having lunch, the gang went out for catching fish. This is time, I had also caught the two fish. Dr Kawar made a joke saying, “Lila now you are the Brazilian fisherman”. After fishing for a couple of hours we went to see other animals. On the way, we saw a 300-year-old house as well. Before that house was built by the Portuguese movie director, but nowadays it belongs to the National Park Property. We had also seen the Cayman in the Amazon Rainforest.
Today was an excellent day that we spent our time in the Amazon rainforest. The trees and animals that we saw here were very different compared to the United States. The gang can’t wait for further exploration in River Amazon rainforest. Tomorrow we shall be heading to collect the information about the Manioc house—one of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon rainforest. Obrigada (Thank you). from Brazil!!
