Sitting on the Veranda looking out over the Essiquibo river at Bartica. Bartica was a beautiful change from the other parts of Guyana that we have seen. Besides being an small Peninsula which sticks out in the confluence of three major rivers, it also has hills which expand the views and forest accessible by a quick walk. The breeze was fantastic at night. We wished we had been able to go up one of the rivers further with Balkaran as he has a wealth of knowledge of the area. But he was booked up and we could only stay so long.
