We come out from the scrubby cover of bush and trees onto an open plain where the road suddenly stops at the banks of a broad stretch of river. Having traveled hours bouncing over rough tracks across open savannah it’s a relief to get out and stand straight. This is the end of the road; the start of our river trek which will take us to the village of YaoYao and the Sarammaca Bush Negroes who live there. With local blacks come to trade all is bustle, excitement, filled with laughter and shouting as canoes and busses arrive and depart.
