Last week we drove out to Porto Novo, a 2,000 person fishing village on the Tucurui Reservoir. A fellow came to talk to us after lunch, thinking maybe we were interested in buying an island as a fishing get away. Apparently fishing is very good here. As we got to talking, he has separated from his wife for the last sixty days. Then we met his wife, Silvana, and their two cute little girls on their floating restaurant / bar. Elvis also owns a bar up in the center part of the village. He got a boat and took us out for a couple of hours on the reservoir so we could get a feel for the place.

I am planning to go back this week, to see if we can get something started here.
