Boquete Hostels - Reviews and Rates

By the time most of you read this, Carter will be back stateside, safe and sound. Writing this entry without her just doesn't feel the same- who's going to look over my shoulder and correct my spelling mistakes?? I guess y'all will just have to deal with those from now on...sorry in advance! As sad as it was to say goodbye (for now) to Carter, w...

Wednesday wasn't much to report back on since it was mostly a travel day from Bocas to Boquete. Of course there was another stop in David for shopping. As to avoid some of the pain Jaime and I went to TGIFridays (*sigh* yes, I know this is a horrible thing to do in a foreign country) for some food and drinks. Even after wasting an hour there wat...

Getting to Boquete from Bocas was a breeze, and despite the various changes needed, we left mid morning and got there late afternoon. On arrival, we were a little worried at first as the first 2 places looked for a room were full (this never happens to us) but thankfully a kind stranger pointed us in the right direction, and we got a comfortable...

We had easy connections to the plane,and then to Boquete and our new little home at Isla Verde (Green Island). It is a cute little place, little "roundhouses" set fairly close together on lovely property with citrus trees and lots of plants and flowers. Our cabina has a little kitchen with fridge and 2 burner hot plate, a sleeping area under the...
