Getting to Bocas



With this journey the pictures will speak better than words. This was one of my favorite trips thus far since being here in Costa Rica. Once again we had to cross the border to in Panama, but this border was like nothing I have seen. I realized at that point we had taken the road less traveled. We had to walk across a bridge that had planks missing everyone and had to be very careful not to fall down. Georgia had forgotten her passport, but this was easily taken care of in Panama (had to pay a 10$ tax). Once on the other side we took a 20 minute taxi for $5 and arrived at the river where we would have to take another taxi, but this time by boat to the beautiful island. The ride there provided amazing sites and is a must see for anyone coming to the region.
