RE: YOU PLANNED VISIT TO MISAHUALLI



Place where the sun emerges from the horizon that unites Misahualli and Napo rivers, sheltered environment with the vast jungle traps, where only its imposing landscape covered in animal sounds and manage to stir the troubled waters soul.
After traveling 30 minutes from Tena by way of the Amazon Core which is in perfect condition, arrived at the first port of Napo, the renowned Misahualli, which is 450 meters, with a comfortable climate that varies between 24 and 30 degrees Celsius.
The port is attached a beach that extends to almost 500 meters long, there, natives of the area devoted to the tourist guide, touring forest, rivers, beaches, lagoons and waterfalls, they show us flora, fauna, wealth fish, traditions, crafts and all the culture of Amazonian communities. The ancient shamanic rituals, clean, medicinal plants, native foods, music, dance and legends are part of the unique offer that attracts countless domestic and foreign tourists.
For those who dare to carry out these activities, then we will learn about the different tours offered to tourists:
The first tour includes visits to the museum, observations lifestyle communities on the banks of the Napo, clean with shamans, explanations of medicinal plants and food samples. This one-hour tour costs between $ 25 and $ 30 for groups of 8 to 10 people.




But if they do not delve much into the jungle, they can choose a thirty-minute ride that includes a short visit to the nearest indigenous communities and a small waterfall in the river Misahualli the cost is $ 15 per group.
And if you just prefer to take a boat ride down the Napo river ties, offers a small tour which costs $ 10.
After analyzing the alternatives you can choose which you prefer, but if you fear to travel by canoe or boat, it is preferable to stay on the beach a bit and cooling swim in the crystal and Misahualli Napo.
Another fun alternative is to get along with Capuchin monkeys have been released in this sector, you can play with them, feed them or persecute them, as mischief and cunning to tease you or subtract your belongings.

UNIT #2 PAST PERFECT

IN  THIS UNIT, WE LET'S STUDY USE OF PAST PERCEST


Past Perfect
Form

How do we make the Past Perfect Tense?
The structure of the past perfect tense is:
subject
+
auxiliary verb HAVE
+
main verb
conjugated in simple past tense
past participle
had
V3
For negative sentences in the past perfect tense, we insert not between the auxiliary verb and main verb. For question sentences, we exchange the subject and auxiliary verb. Look at these example sentences with the past perfect tense:

subject
auxiliary verb
main verb

+
I
had
finished
my work.
+
You
had
stopped
before me.
-
She
had
not
gone
to school.
-
We
had
not
left.
?
Had
you
arrived?
?
Had
they
eaten
dinner?

When speaking with the past perfect tense, we often contract the subject and auxiliary verb:



I had
I'd
you had
you'd
he had
she had
it had
he'd
she'd
it'd
we had
we'd
they had
they'd


Examples

Affirmative sentences:
I had played hockey.
I'd played hockey.
You had played hockey.
You'd played hockey.
Negative sentences:
I had not played hockey.
I'd not played hockey.
I hadn't played hockey.
You had not played hockey.
You'd not played hockey.
You hadn't played hockey.

 Use

1) Together with the Simple Past
When two past actions are combined - the first action, which was completed before the second one began, is put into Past Perfect.

EXAMPLES:
Mary had read the book before she watched a film.
After Amy had gone home it started to rain.

2) The past equivalent of the Present Perfect
He had played hockey.
Besonderheiten
Present Perfect
Past Perfect
The bike is new. I've bought it.
The bike was new. I had bought it.

Past Perfect - Simple Past
Simple Past - Simple Past
The match had started before he arrived.
The match started when he arrived.
