memories
I remmebr a different Rio Dulce from my time there. I lived there for 6 months in a small hut behind a restaurant on the south shore of the river where the bridge is. It was 1974 and i was 9 years old. There was not a bridge then only a ferry boat to take people accross and the road was mostly dirt. They had a generator that gave power till 9pm and then you relied on candles for light. My dad was working there scouting out areas for the bridge. We used to set up a slide show somenights for the villagers and they loved it. Livingston also back then was onlhy accessable by a ride down the river in a dugout boat. They only had 3 cars in the town back then. Such memories. Such fun.
