We dance, sing and play music. The spirits are an important part of our lives. We have great respect for them." My 10-year-old son, Marco, my wife, Susan, and I are learning about the customs of the Tarino through our guide, naturalist and translator, Luiz Magalhaes. Luiz is the chief guide at our base camp, the Ariau Amazon Jungle Towers and Hotel, which is on the Rio Negro River about two hours by boat from the city of Manaus in the state of Amazonas. At the Tarino village, we feel like we are literarily in the middle of nowhere. We had left New York only yesterday for this unique family vacation. Luiz, after explaining that he, too, firmly believes in the spirits, continues his translation: "If we do have to go into the rain forest on Thursday, we make an offering under a samauma tree (the strongest tree in the rain forest) to the spirits that includes bananas, coconuts, honey and pineapple juice. Our offerings show that we respect the spirits and that we are asking for their protection." See More... Compartir: Nota: Somebody sent us this history ... (5563 Lecturas) ![]()
