The fish from Iguana Island

Day 3 – Iguana Island
We were up bright and early this morning to venture off onto the deep blue sea, bound for Iguana Island. Weirdly we only saw a couple iguanas all day, I guess they heard we were coming and sent a bazillion hermit crabs to scare us off. Little did they know that we laugh in the face of hermit crabs, except the one in the picture, he was a little scary. Two of us did some hardcore snorkeling, I bet you…
Day 2 – Let’s go surfin now!
We took some time this morning for a bit more exploration of the town. There are so many lovely people here. Coucou Crazy is an outdoor bar owned by a Belgian Pastry chef who sells fresh greens and bagels. Easily the best bagel I have ever had with fresh grown tomatoes and garden fresh Dill.

Every day we play chickens or dogs to see which there are…
Clown Car!
So we booked an SUV knowing we had quite a few bags. Good to know that in Panama anything with a tire on the back is an SUV. On the plus side watching Phil pack this thing was beyond hilarious and impressive. I get to relive that memory every time he folds himself in half to get in.
Welcome to Panamá!
A whole month in paradise! Since it’s a long trip we thought it would be fun to document our stay in blog form. Hi Mom and Dad 😉! The trip here was long but fun and we are having a great time. Amazing how quickly we all fell into that relaxed mañana vibe.
