Ke hele nei ma ke kahakai ʻo Emerald, ma ka ʻākau o ke awa o Veracruz a me kekahi mau minuke mai ke kauhale ʻo Palma Sola, ua hōʻea mākou i ka māla ʻo Boca de Loma, kahi e hoʻomaka ai i kā mākou huakaʻi ma nā lio e hoʻomaka ana mai nā puʻu i ke kahakai a hiki i ka ka ululāʻau mānoanoa a hele i waena o ke kahakai e kipa aku i nā kahawai waha huna, La Mesilla, el naranjo, Santa Gertrudis, Centenario, el Sobrante a me La Junta.

ʻO nā hana hoʻokele waiwai nui ma ia wahi ka hānai pipi, ka hana ʻana i ka tī a me nā kalima a me ke kūʻai aku o nā pipi, akā i kēia mau lā ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻolako i nā kumuwaiwai kūpono no ka mālama ʻana i nā mahiā, a ma muli o kēia kūlana ua ʻoki ʻia ka nahele. Aia kekahi manaʻo wahaheʻe e ʻoi aku ka nui o nā wahi hānai i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka loaʻa kālā, akā ʻo ka mea wale nō e hana ʻia ma kēia ala e luku ʻia nā hectare a me nā hectare o nā mea kanu. Eia nō naʻe, ma muli o kona ʻano kino, maikaʻi loa kēia ʻāina no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka ecotourism a me ka mākaʻikaʻi huakaʻi, kahi hiki ke lilo i kahi koho hoʻokele waiwai hou no ka mālama ʻana i ka nahele a hāpai i ka pae o ka nohona o nā kamaʻāina.
Hoʻolālā ʻia nō hoʻi e hoʻomaka i nā papahana ʻepekema e like me ke aʻo ʻana a me ka nānā ʻana o nā manu, no ka mea ʻo ke kahakai o kēia wahi kahi wahi o kahi neʻe nui o nā raptors e like me ka falcon peregrine e hele mai ana mai Kanada a me ka ʻākau o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a kū ma kēia ʻāina i ka wā nā mahina ʻo ʻOkakopa a me Nowemapa a laila hoʻomau i kona ala i ʻAmelika Hema.
ʻO nā ʻano ʻē aʻe i hiki ke ʻike ʻia ma kahakai a ma nā mangrove ʻo ia ka kingfisher, herons, redfish, cormorants, Duck duck and ospreys. Akā ʻaʻole kēia mau manu wale nō, no ka mea ke komo mākou i ka ululāʻau hiki iā mākou ke mahalo i nā touchan waihoʻoluʻu, nā parakeets, nā luina, nā ihu, nā chachalacas a me nā pepes, ka inoa hope no ke kani a lākou e hoʻopuka ai. E mahalo ai i kēia laha, makemake ʻia e kūkulu i kahi camouflage kūikawā e hūnā i ka mea nānā mai ka nānā wai a me ka makaukau maikaʻi o ka poʻe noho o ka lewa.
ʻO kekahi papahana nui ʻē aʻe o ka lāʻau lapaʻau a me nā lāʻau naturopathic, kahi e hiki mai ana i kēia wā waiwai nui.
Ke holoholo nei i ka ululāʻau me Don Bernardo, ka luna o rancho el Naranjo, hele mākou i kahi huakaʻi hoihoi o ka flora o ka ʻāina o kāna pono lāʻau.
"Hoʻohana mākou i ka guava a me ka copal no ka ʻeha o ka ʻōpū, a me ka huaco me ka brandy no nā nauyaca nahu, nā mea kanu momona no ka hoʻōki a me ka thyme no ka makaʻu. Ua hoʻohana wau i ka mea hope loa i kēia manawa no ka mea ua hoʻomaka kaʻu keiki e maʻi a makemake ʻole e ʻai a ʻo ka mea i hana ʻia ua ʻōhumu wau iā mākou ke hele mai mākou mai Santa Gertrudis no ka mea ua hāʻule ʻo ia mai kāna lio, akā hāʻawi wau iā ia i kāu kīʻī time a wehe ʻo ia i ka weliweli. "
ʻO kēia mau mea kanu āpau he ʻāpana liʻiliʻi wale nō ia o ka flora, ʻo ke koena i hana ʻia me nā ceibas nui, nā lāʻau fiku, nā lāʻau mulatto, nā lāʻau keʻokeʻo a me nā mea hou aku. A ʻo nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole kahi ʻano ākea i haku ʻia me armadillos, opossums, badger, deer, ocelots, tepescuincles a me nā moʻo, ʻoiai e pono e ʻōlelo ʻia ua hoʻolauna ʻia ka hope loa mai ka make ʻana o ka poʻe i noho ma laila.
Kūpono ka ʻāina no ka hana ʻana i nā huakaʻi pau ʻole e like me ka holoholo, ka holo lio o hoʻokahi a ʻelima mau lā, nā huakaʻi ola o ka ululāʻau, holo nā waʻa ma waena o nā mangrove a me nā hana racho e like me ka hana waiū, hana ʻana i ka tī a me ka mālama holoholona.
E kamaʻilio pū ana me Don Bernardo ʻoiai ʻo ia e hana ana i ka waiū a inu mākou i kekahi o nā waiū waiū maikaʻi loa o ka honua i hana ʻia me ka waiū maka, ka barani a me ke kō, ua wehewehe ʻo ia iā mākou i ka wā e noho lio ai nā lio a pehea e hōʻailona ai nā holoholona.
"Ke palupalu ka mahina, ʻaʻole pono e kau ʻia no ka mea e paʻa ana ka holoholona, akā inā mākou e kau iā ia me ka mahina ikaika e paʻa mau ia. Kaha pū ʻia nō hoʻi; Inā mākou e māka iā lākou me ka mahina ikaika, ʻaʻole ulu ka māka, inā mākou e hana ia me ka mahina hou, deformed ka māka; ʻAʻole māka ʻia ma ka wā a ma ke kūkulu ʻākau hoʻi ka maʻi o nā holoholona.
I ke ahiahi, lilo ka serla i ʻahamele kani mai nā manu o ka pō, nā ʻalekiko a me nā cicadas, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe ʻē aʻe. A i ka wā e hāʻule ai ka pouli, hele ka poʻe i loko o ko lākou mau hale a puka ʻole i waho no ka mea piliwi lākou i nā ʻuhane, nā ʻuhane ʻino, nā goblins a me nā pilikua e ʻuhane nei i ka pō. ʻO nā pilikua, e like me ka kaao, ʻekolu.
ʻO kekahi o lākou i ʻaʻahu ʻia i ka ʻeleʻele a e holo ana i kahi lio, e ʻaʻe ana i kahi pālule polū a komo i ka pāpale, a ʻo ke kolu wale nō e ʻike kona aka. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia kēia mau mea i ka ululāʻau, ma ka hopena o nā alanui a ma ka nahelehele i ke ahiahi, akā ʻaʻole lākou e hana iki, nānā wale lākou iā ʻoe, a i ʻole ka mea nui a nā poʻe e ʻōlelo ai.
E like me nā ʻuhane, mai nānā mākou i kā mākou ulu lāʻau a luku iā mākou iho, a e pale aku mākou i kēia wahi nani i paʻa maoli ia e like me kēia manawa.
