Pananama!!

Micah and I went to Panama for the week and just got back at about 3 this morning - it was one of the craziest little trips I have ever been on! I loved it!


We started out in Panama City, where we saw part of the Panama Canal.





Then we flew in a box shaped airplane over to the Bocas Islands, where we stayed for the rest of the trip.









These islands were beautiful! They are covered in jungles and deserted beaches and little villages. We spent our days hiking through the rainforests, snorkeling in the warm water, semi-exploring caves, spying on jungle animals, riding scooters on muddy roads in the pooring rain (this seriously was one of my favorite days) and eating at little restaurants along the way!






The weather changed by the hour from sunny to cloudy to pooring rain and thunder storms and back to sunny again - making everything a little more adventury.




We went with 10 other friends - all experienced adventure trip takers.. I got the memo that it was an adventure trip, unfortunately I did not take it seriously. Result? Lots of bug bites and muddy flip flops.

Lessons learned? Take adventure friends seriously and do not cross the Eukre wizards.

Tracy! I think your hair looks great, and the trip to Panama? I would have LOVED it - without a kid that is! That's cool that you got to go on a trip like that. I love seeing new places. I'd love to be in Seattle for Thanksgiving, but no can do with the price of international flights these days....
