Story of jungle trip part2

The next morning as I woke up every body else where already brushing teeth and getting ready. The captain and one of us went also fishing in the morning. Very early we started the trip and found the right way inside the national park .after about 2 hours the river became narrower and some houses showed them selves so we could talk to some fishers and find a place to stay for a day. One of them had a little house where we decided to stay. A very silent river we sounds of birds from the jungle which start just on the sides of river a beautiful scene.
I catched my first and biggest fish that afternoon I was really happy that day. It was a real big fish they called it TUKUNARE and it was also very delicious. We spent the day fishing and swimming and after sunset it was a beautiful scene of night in the jungle it was the most beautiful nights I have ever seen with a big moon in the sky witch made the jungle like a bed room with a dimmed light . we prepared another fire to cook the dinner which was also fruit salad and some chicken .
After the dinner the guide was talking about a wild animal getting near us .it seemed that he is afraid of animals or he just wanted to make a wild picture of jungle in our minds, Because during the trip we never saw any kind of animals except birds beside the water. so it was confusing if there was some animal near us or not. But it was enough to get ready for the boat again. We started the way back home. In the morning as I got up we were at one of those houses which we saw already on our way. We took some shower in the river and then we went for jungle walk and some fishing after we got into a silent small river with a smaller boat, we saw some unexplainable scenes of nature some trees which were fallen in the river and made kinds of barriers for every boat which wanted to go along the river. And the fishes were just jumping out of water to play or get food I mean really big fishes and the water was so silent that I could see the fishes swimming under the boat. In the jungle we saw some exotic trees like the big one with sort of milk called latex tree and the one with water dropping out of its braches if you cut them.
In the afternoon we started our way back home again and we stopped again for lunch at a beach so here we prepared the fishes we catched the day before. The guide did fill the fishes with a sort of salad and spices. And then rolled the fishes in the banana leafs and put it on the grill on the fire.
Here I catched my second fish , it was a great feeling pulling the line with a strong fish on it .
On the last hours of our trip the sky began to become dark slowly and the wind became stronger every minute, it was a great feeling as I was sitting in the front part of the boat and enjoying the wild environment which we were passing the green trees of different types just covered with some other plants and palm trees watching up to sky and old dead trees lust laying on both sides of the river like half in water and half in the jungle . the light and combination of colors made me mad of that beauty the brown color of the river with moving waves and the many different greens and a dark blue gray background being shined by the sunset light and a wind blowing in your face and the feeling of being in some where special and just forgetting the sad and dark world of everyday life and just forget all bad things which are surrounding you in your life and the feeling of being in a part of paradise just in a place that the humans didn’t dare to destroy . it was like a place where you can forgive everybody and everything because you are far away from any kind of civilization . its also a strange feeling being in the middle of wildness , where we once maybe have lived in .and I was feeling myself as a part of some wildness and feel the power of nature blowing the wind to my face and the fact that the modern humans cant live in nature any more without their technology .
The wind and storm made us stop at the river side and wait for the end of storm which took about one hour we just tried not to get wet a lot . after some hour we took the way into the port where a ship was waiting to bring us back to Manaus. And what happened at that night on the ship is a story for itself but I cant write it here. The End
