That statue is in another state... It's located in Rio de Janeiro and I live in Amazonas... it's kinda like if the statue was located in New York, I would be living in Colorado... ;)

My surroundings are a bit more wild than that...

Lots of trees and a whole lot of water...

Terribly short...huahuahua I'm 1,68m tall... ;) if the stories were true, I would probably be left to tend to the tribe's basic needs for being too short for warrior duty... hehehe

That got your attention Ol...? wonder why?
Click to expand...
Uh, cause it was violent and gross... after all the beautiful pictures. Amazonas is a state in Brazil - I know this because I used to know someone who lived in Amazonas (I doubt Carol knows him, and I haven't seen him since he moved back 4 years ago.)

Why'd you bring up violence Mitspa? And why did you note that it got my attention? I often read threads without comment... don't you?

Sorry Im a guy..and when we here the word Amazon..we think of big jungle women who beat up and do violent things to men... maybe its a cultural thing, or a male thing?


Back to the nice pics...I derailed my own thread :(

Is that a RIVER, Carol? At the mouth of the ocean, maybe? Goodness! Also... is it black from churned up soil upstream?

And OnceFallen - that's a clay river, huh? I don't think I've ever seen one that color. Looks tasty! I'll have a drink! ;)

Yeah... that's a river... hahahahaha Rivers around here tend to be quite big, and this one is on the top 5 list (or top 2... I don't think there are any rivers larger than Rio Negro and Rio Amazonas around here)...

At this point, it's about 4km from one side to the other... and it's about 35 to 50 meters deep... but it can go wider and deeper than that in other places throughout its course... :) and the dark water is from organic matter in suspension... (not sure if that's how it goes in English, but that's the idea)... :)

Explained perfectly! (Organic matter in suspension is a rather educated way to say it... we'd typically say: "Yeah, it's got weeds and dirt floating in it." :) )

Cool though!
