we are now back in san jose the rest of our time was pretty uneventful in panama. we hung out with sophie some more after she got back from san blas. we went to a bar called unplugged with p and jessica. the music there was really friggin loud. so we left went to a salsa bar where jessica a half phillipino proceeded to teach me how to dance salsa. how pathetic is that. mike couldnt take any more salsa so he went back and the three of us snuck into a club called kraze. after one beer i realized i couldnt take another so we were all pretty trashed so we went home. the next night me, mike, sophie, p, jessica and a girl called jenna went out to calle uruguay and went to a ... read more

we left granada on a chicken bus headed to rivas where we shared a cab with a couple of american guys. we all loaded up in a small toyota and were on our way to san juan del sur. we drove on the worst road ive ever seen. 4 guys in a tiny car on a road with huge pot holes doesnt mix. the car actually made it in one piece. we got out went to casa oro for a room but they were booked. so we went down the street and found another place to stay. we dropped off our bags and headed out to the beach. after a swim we went back showered and went for a beer and watched the sun set. afterwards we headed to the iguana bar for some food and ... read more
well we left the bearded monkey yesterday to go to the monkey hut in lago de apoyo. it a crater lake on a volcano. the place is gorgeous. right on the lake u can graba kayak or an inner tube or jump off the dock and swim to a floating dock and lay out in the sun. it was very relaxing there but there was hardly anyone there so after we swam we just kinda sat around and read and played a couple of games of war. mike is beating me 9 games to 8 so far. we didnt know if we wanted to stay another night or not so when we woke up we decided to leave and stay in granada another night and go to san juan del sur early in the morning. we ... read more
