Panamá

I had a great weekend this weekend in Panamá, but first, I want to share with you the game from last weekend - I went to a Costa Rican soccer game.

Everyone gets excited for the games

Everyone had jerseys (at the game as well)

The stadium

And on an unrelated note, this is what the inside of a tamarind looks like

And now for... Panamá!

We stayed on an island and passed these cute little huts on the way (we went via boat)

Playa de Estrellas (Starfish beach)

Starfish!

The water was so clear and there were a lot of starfish

Water bike!

Bocas del Toro, Panama is so pretty!

Dolphin!

Dolphins (delfines) in real life

Cool corals

Birds (who were basically pets)

Little crab!

And... that's when my camera died.

But it was a great weekend! We spent a lot of time on the beaches near/on the island we were staying on, Isla Colón and saw a lot of cool wildlife. By the way, Isla Colón is named after Christopher Columbus, whose name in Spanish is Cristobal Colón. (That's also why Costa Rican currency is called colones)

I want to let you guys have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about Costa Rica - my experiences, the culture, the food, etc. If I don't know the answer I will ask my host family. =)
