Getting to the mangrove, where the birds rest for the night, takes you at a very nice time of the day through the harbor area as well. |

True, guilty as charged. I love ships and boats. Used to sail a Prindle catamaran in the ocean, off Oxnard, CA |

Guyana, I believe also has the longest pontoon bridge in the world. It was built to last 15 years, but decades later, here it still is. |

A ship in front of a sugar processing plant being loaded. I could smell the sugar very powerfully as we pulled closer |

Old docksides notwithstanding, containers are the name of the game |

A new riverboat under construction. The flat keel gets it into all of the shallow areas. |
 |
Like in the other countries in this region, the rivers are patrolled by a river navy |
 |
Some of the wealth of these countries, now, however, generally much better managed |
