Greetings hive bloggers, our days in the southern part of the ARAYA PENINSULA were running out, LAGUNA GRANDE and its spectacular sea were left behind.

Saludos hive blogueros, nuestros días por la parte sur de la PENINSULA DE ARAYA se estaban agotando, atrás quedaba LAGUNA GRANDE y su espectacular mar.

We returned along the unique road full of ocher and intense blue hues that once in a while allowed us to see the city of Cumaná in the distance. Thus, at a rhythmic rhythm, detailing everything that we could observe, the hours passed.

Retornamos por la singular carretera llena de matices ocres y azul intenso que debes en cuando nos permitía ver en la lejanía la ciudad de Cumaná. Así a ritmo acompasado detallando todo lo que pudiéramos observar fueron transcurriendo las horas.

Passing near the house of the poet Cruz Salmerón Acosta, my mind once again remembered small fragments of his poem “AZUL”.

Al pasar cerca de la casa del poeta Cruz Salmerón Acosta mi mente recordó una vez más pequeños fragmentos de su poema “AZUL”.

We left Manicuare la Angoleta and Laguna Grande in the distance and in the distance with amazement we observed a whitish and reddish mirage were the Salinas de Araya, the same ones that in colonial times Spanish and Dutch fought.

Dejamos en la distancia a Manicuare la Angoleta y Laguna Grande y en la lejanía con asombro observábamos un espejismo blanquecino y rojizo eran las Salinas de Araya, las mismas que en tiempo de la colonia españoles y holandeses se peleaban.

So much was the interest of Spain to protect the Araya salt mine that they built a castle called "LA REAL FORTALEZA DE SANTIAGO DE ARROYO DE ARAYA".

Tanto fue el interés de España por proteger la salina de Araya que se construyeron un castillo que se llama “LA REAL FORTALEZA DE SANTIAGO DE ARROYO DE ARAYA”.

In the Araya salt flats, the sea water enters the mainland and bathes the mother lagoon (the main and largest salt flat). The inclement sun and the dry air eventually evaporate the water, revealing the precious salt. 70% of the salt consumed in the country is produced in these salt mines.

En las salinas de Araya el agua del mar entra a tierra firme y baña la laguna madre (salina principal y la más grande) el inclemente sol y el aire seco eventualmente evaporan el agua quedando al descubierto la preciada sal. En estas salinas se produce el 70% de la sal que se consume en el país.

The salty air enters the pores and the sun's radiation increases, but the gentle afternoon breeze refreshes those who dare to spend some time admiring this beautiful Salinas de Araya.

El aire salitroso entra en los poros y la radiación del sol se incrementa, pero la suave brisa de la tarde refresca a los que se atreven a pasar un rato admirando esta bellísima Salinas de Araya.

With the afternoon breeze we say goodbye to the Salinas Araya. Arriving in Cumaná at night, ending this beautiful walk to the south side of the ARAYA PENINSULA.

Con la brisa de la tarde nos despedimos de las Salinas Araya . Arribando a Cumaná en horas de la noche, dando por terminado este hermoso paseo hacia el lado sur de la PENINSULA DE ARAYA.
