Catatumbo lightning -

This is an atmospheric phenomenon in Venezuela. It occurs only over the mouth of the Catatumbo River where it empties into Lake Maracaibo. When warm and cold fronts meet, it forms the right conditions for this lightning. Not only that, but nearby marshes emit methane gas, improving the electrical conductivity - which helps cause these extended lightning strikes





Slave huts in Boniare

these huts were built and used for slaves working on the salt pans around the 1830's and are 5 ft high and 6 ft wide. Used only for sleeping as the slaves worked Monday to Friday and spent the weekends with their families (7 hour hike away). The huts originally had thatched roofs and are preserved by the admin as a reminder of the sins of their fathers and the historical cost of salt!
