One of the people that maintain airstrip
in Kayser. They are of Maroons - descendants of former slaves from
Africa. At Kayser, they seemed to maintain the
airstrip and the new tourist lodges, returning every couple of months
to
Paramaribo to their families there. They didn't seem to be as intrested
in the jungle around as we were. |

New tourist lodges at Kayser. We were
told, that tourists arrive here mostly e.g. for 3 days for fishing, but
not very often I guess. |

The first cayman we saw. They are
afraid generally, so do not move and maybe think, they they will
not be seen. |
We went till about 1 meter close to them,
not more for sure. |

Fishermens camp for tourists, 2 days of
