My journey to the Gran Sabana
The Gran Sabana is a place with a lot of natural beauty and a number of unique plant species; It is located in the South of Brazilian. The area has a tropical climate with an average temperature of 28 °C, but at night it can go down to 13 °C.
I went to Gran Sabana in the year 2009 with my sister and friends; it was really wonderful because there, it is totally relaxing. We went for one week. The journey is a long travel approximately fifteen hours but My sister and my friends carried their cars.
The first stop was at Puerto Ordaz- state Bolivar. We wanted to eat and rest, because there were more continuous hours of driving, while we were going we enjoyed the beautiful landscape of the forest and different kinds of bird and herbage. I can say there it is like another country because of all the Flora and Fauna in that environment, where we could breathe natural and fresh air.
The second stop-off was at a place where the people can camp. There the people must go prepared to camp and we were prepared for it, we carried food, drink, games, repellent and everything which we needed, In the morning we went to Santa Elena de Uairen to buy some things and to know the place. We could only go as far as the border of Brazil, It was a good Experience. There we bought some nice bikinis and some souvenir, When we returned from the border, we rented a public house called roraima, It is a good place with quality of attention to guests which we liked a lot.
In the afternoon we spoke with the landlord and he told us that his son is a reporter and that, he is living in United States where they offer the best work, but he came this day to visit his family in Santa Elena, At night when he arrived , we met him realized that he was a reporter from Venezuela- Caracas in a TV station called Venevision. We took photos with him and he is a nice and humble person. We had a dinner with him and spoke for a long time. The next day in the morning, we went to different waterfalls called: Quebrada de Jaspe, Salto Aponwao, Salto Kama, Salto Kawi, all with a varied of charms. Of course we took some photos of the cute places.
I can sincerely recommend The Gran Sabana as a site for meditation and perfect to relax and enjoy with family and friends, and to spend a wonderful time.
