 johnsakura Says:  Birds along with old ships. An odd scenery not very normal to see. 

 johnsakura Says:  Km and km of sea shore with old boats. 

 johnsakura Says:  Fishing is not only with boats. this guy is going to catch some octapus on the sea. 

 johnsakura Says:  On this area of Cansado there are more or less 50 sunked ships. the scenery is very nice though dispite of ecologc impact. 

 johnsakura Says:  I was very surprised to find these people on my walk on the beach. Besides some old boats this area have maybe half dozen little houses belonging to local fishermen. 

 johnsakura Says:  The beach here on the picture lookds very nice. But somehow I managed to take all the garbage of the pic area. This area has tons of garbage that comes from the sea. Boats throw the garbage directly to the sea.

 johnsakura Says:  Another close view of a dead fishing vessel.I cant imagine the great polluction impact this may cause. Either the way I notice that already many birds and fishes use the boats as refugee and place to hide or rest. 

 johnsakura Says:  This old ship has been here for a long time.As I walked on this beach I took my shirt out to get some color. I walked the all Cansado Bay unitl the ville of Nouadhibou. That probably 10 km.Temperatures here in Mauritania are always a bit high. ALthough I got a rainy day. 

 johnsakura Says:  This people break a ship appart to get some metal pieces for something they need to build. 

 johnsakura Says:  this is the type of fish people here dont eat. they just throw it way. All along the coast you can see hundreds of fishes like this one.
