Wherever the eye turned, there was nothing the same as there is no group of stones or a hole of water that looks alike. And then add the season, which changes the vegetation that contains it, with those beautiful long roots that cling to the stones and the floods with its quantities of water that pours along its course with deafening noise and barefoot and roll incredibly large stones. When everything returns to normal, here the stream has changed completely.
