Not too far away from the zoo is the town of Tonnegrande, a quaint village along the Tonnegrande river. Jack and I went there for a quiet walk along the riverside. (Click on photos to enlarge).
We saw a pretty impressive mango tree next to this foot bridge...
The picture above is supposedly a really nice restaurant along the river front but it was closed on this lazy Sunday afternoon. Too bad.
It only took us about twenty minutes to walk around the center of the village, but there were a couple of nice buildings in colonial style architecture such as the post office...
... or the church.
We're well into the dry season now so every day is hot and sunny. A lot of people take advantage of the dry season to go for walks in the rain forest since the trails aren't muddy or slippery and wet. Perhaps we'll try that next week...
