The Malecon of Paseo Orinoco.

3 months ago

Greetings again Wednesday walking friends, being busy that I almost let this day go by, of a morning walk along the Malecon of Paseo Orinoco, very early in the morning.

Although I did not walk it all because it is very long, I went with my daughter, we left the house, but I stayed on the promenade and she continued on the bus to her university classes.

The streets were lonely, empty, it was not yet 7 o'clock in the morning, it was cool, cold, a lovely silence, few people were walking, students were going to their classes, but I went straight to the boardwalk.

I took out my camera, started my walk and took pictures, I wanted to try my luck if some toninas came out, they are aquatic animals, similar to dolphins, but they have been seen a lot in this river.

You could see the river totally serene, calm waters in the depths, on the other side of the river, the population of the Encaramada, there was a row of white birds flying, I liked that a lot using all the zoom I took the photos you see, I do not know what birds are, but it has been said that they may be herons, but I just called my attention to its color so white and how they were flying.

I continued my walk, the boardwalk is very clean, some people were already arriving waiting for the stores to open, they must be the workers. Others are walking and exercising.

Further ahead there is a large tree that covers a large part of the beach, giving a wonderful shade, from there I could see a boat with people coming from the other side, to my city, some come to work, others to run errands.

This place in July and August when the Orinoco Fair is celebrated, you can not walk because of the amount of visitors from the city, as well as others who come to enjoy the fair, but after the fair, everything returns to normal and quiet.

The river has already lowered enough that you can see the sand as if it were a beach, if you can go down, yes you can but I did not want to do it this time, another time.

Little by little time went by, there was already more traffic of people and vehicles, so there was not much peace anymore, I decided it was time to go back home.
