In early February this year I took some pictures in the same location as I did a year ago when we had a reasonable amount of rain and the road to Aquidauana closed when the river overflowed its banks. The first picture shows the view from the Barra Mansa bridge looking at the other side of the river where we have the notorious "Boca Quente" or hot mouth in english which is where the main road into town goes through and our road access to Aquidauana closes when the river overflows. This year it never closed becaus the rains never came!
Our port located on the oximore of the Rio Negro is also visibly different and reflects how much lower the river was in February 2009
An other landmark is the "snow white beach located on our river stretch almost oposite to the entrance of our oximore visibly larger this year in february when compared to last year same day.
