What do you do on a rainy day in Bocas?

... not so much as it turned out! It was steady for a good 2 hours, and there was no dryness in sight- everything was just, well, wet. Soaked. But it didn´t stop people from snorkeling or me from diving. So down I went for the second dive of the day (Carter kept watch on the boat this time). I´ll say this much about the diving in Bocas, I think learning to dive in Thailand has severly skewed my diving judgement! What was ...

A little Goose

... and small neon orange frogs. The bat cave was incredible. You could feel them whizzing by your head, but they never touched you. Some of the insects in there were the size of our hands, which "bugged" me as we had to touch the walls in certain areas to make our way. Unfortunately my head lamp broke and Mel's died only after a little while, which meant that we had to turn around. Walking back out through the jagged floor covered in water up to our ...

Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica ... Day 7

... sloth. This creature goes back 60 million years. The guide then lead us to view the sloths at the sanctuary. They are very cute, a constant smile on their face, they truly do resemble a very cute stuffed animal you just want to grab and hold! These animals live high in the trees, sleep 12-18 hours per day and live seeing the world upside down. They literally wrap their arms and legs around the branch of a tree and tilt their ...

Bocas Del Toro - day 2

... told about the hamster that night). Beers at the bar were a whopping $1.25 - I could get use to that. After leaving the bar at closing I didn´t see any taxis on the street so I tried calling the cab driver who´d driven us into town earlier, but had no luck. I went back and asked the bartender if he could call me a cab and when I said where I needed to go he pretty much looked at me like I was crazy. Since it seemed I was stranded I went to the hostel ...

Turtle!

... while, and then we waited as she covered the nest and went back into the ocean. In the end she laid 128 eggs, which was quite heavy to carry about 5km back to the hatchery. Finally got back to the station at about 6am, feeling pretty exhausted. So, I decided to leave on the high note of the turtle discovery, and got packed up. I left at about 9am, took a very bumpy bus to the Panama border, Sixaola, and then crossed the river into Panama. No problem getting the exit stamp from Costa ...

Red Frog Beach

... enjoy the waves in Red Frog Beach (the water is warm and there is no strong current). The beach bar additionally gives it a feeling of tropical paradise. After a few hours it did prove to be a very popular place (we found out that many tours stop there for 2 hours), but the beaches are so long that you can easily escape company. The name by the way refers to the species of frog that lives in the Island, although we didnt see any of those at that time of day.
