... her husband and 5 year old son. We shared a water taxi back to Bocas. This has been a wonderful day followed by a equally wonderful night.<br>This morning we decided to try a new place for breakfast.

We had the mixed ceviche again and we split 2 half pound burgers with fries ...

... night as he was not anywhere noticeable. The heat was intense and wasn't the best thing for recovery from the prior night's festivities. The air conditioning sure did feel good, I must say after spending most of the past 8 days outside, I stayed in. I have decided there are not going to be any hummingbirds stop by, at least while I watch but I sure did want a few pictures of some. I ...

... pulled up to a walk through the jungle which led to Red Frog beach. We did see one or two of these little critters, which are only poisonous to those which eat them. Other highlights in Bocas included a live talk about Sloths and our hostels parrot who could uncannily mimick most noises, including screaming school children. We're back on the mainland again, with the intention to head East. Do remember to send us messages with what you are all up to!!

There is Nikolas, from Costa Rica, with 8 (real) children and subsequently, many grandchildren. A natural teacher, he takes great pleasure in correcting our Spanish and teaching us new words whenever he can. I have him to thank for my days of the week and months of the year. One day, I ...

One of the last things the strange lady at our hostel in Panama city said to us was, ¨Good luck wid weather!¨ with her fingers crossed oddly in front of her and a funny look on her face. Our intentions were to spend about a week in Bocas del Toro, an idyllic archipelagos nestled off Panama in the Caribbean Sea, a little bit of relaxation and warmth before we headed up to work hard and live in the cold Andes in Ecuador. I had never contemplated the possibility that our week ...

... people) and had little willpower to refuse the infamous 'just one beer'. Happy hour is extremely happy at Mondu Taitu with a bottle of bneer for 50 cents! Numerous beers, rums and local 'delicacies' later I rolled into the hostel at 4am ..sigh.
