Cooking with the Guna Indians: Coconut Rice, Fried Conchs, and Island Delights. Join us on an unforgettable culinary journey as we visit the Guna Indians on their island and delve into their traditional cuisine. Learn how to prepare coconut rice, fried conchs in sauce, and sweet fried plantains, adding a touch of sweetness to dinner. Discover their secrets to cooking stewed clams and the myriad dishes they create from coconuts. ... Off Panama's coast lie the San Blas Islands, a collection of about 365 islands and reefs. Nearly 50 of these are inhabited, home to friendly communities. These islands are part of Guna Yala, where the Guna people live happily by the Caribbean Sea. We were lucky enough to become friends with a Guna completely by chance. One day, an indigenous person paddled up to us in a canoe and asked if we could charge their phones because the generator on their island had broken down. Over the next few days, Patrick paddled over to us, and we charged their phones while getting to know them better. Of course, I mentioned that we collect recipes from around the world, and one day Patrick invited us to eat dinner with them on their island, promising to teach us how to cook local food.

Come and JOIN the ADVENTURES - https://thejunk.com/liveaboard-schedules/ Plankton are an incredibly diverse group of organisms that inhabit the world's oceans, lakes, and rivers. They are classified into two main categories: phytoplankton, which are microscopic plants, and zooplankton, which are tiny animals. Characteristics of Plankton Drifting Nature: Plankton are primarily characterized by their inability to swim against currents. Instead, they drift with the water flow, which means their distribution is largely influenced by oceanic and atmospheric currents. This drifting lifestyle allows them to occupy various ecological niches in both freshwater and marine environments. Size and Diversity: Plankton vary dramatically in size, ranging from tiny bacteria (nanoplankton) to larger organisms like jellyfish (macroplankton). This diversity also extends to their biological classifications, including single-celled organisms like diatoms and dinoflagellates among phytoplankton, and small crustaceans such as copepods among zooplankton. Ecological Importance: Plankton play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems. Phytoplankton are primary producers, converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis and forming the base of the food web. Zooplankton feed on phytoplankton and serve as a food source for larger marine animals, including fish and whales.
