  • 115 days sans LouboutinsToday is a significant day for a number of reasons. This feels like the end of phase 1 to me - my last day in Central America after a four month wind-down. I have just sent my hair straighteners home Posted by cmarks in On your Marks | Apr 19, 2011
  • Panama and the Embera IndiansAs usual we are off the boat early. This one is 'My Friend Mario Tours." Good buses, no evidence of seat belts, but has AC. Rey is our guide and was very interesting, he was well versed in the history Posted by Mari Anne in Cruising march 2011 | Jun 1, 2011
  • Our Yacht in San BlasThis is our yacht that we had around the San Blas Islands. http://www.flickr.com/photos/downbhoy// Posted by downbhoy in The long way round | May 23, 2011
  • San Blas Islands, PanamaSo we set sail and I’m not going to lie. It was a horrible 36 hours and was really rough and everyone was feeling ill accept for Hannah who had found her sea legs quite early on. Germans Posted by downbhoy in The long way round | May 22, 2011
  • PanamaPanama City Panama City is a strange mix of the very wealthy and the very poor. The city skyline is modern enough to rival New York or Tokyo, but just a stone’s throw away people are Posted by Stevie_A in Sabbatical 2011 | May 18, 2011
  • Picturesque PanamáOn the Caribbean coast of Panamá, in the province of Bocas del Toro, the Bocas del Toro Archipelago is located consisting of a series of nine islands just off the mainland. Bocas del Toro is also the name of Posted by A-Team in A-Team Adventures | May 12, 2011
  • Bocas del ToroDel Pacífico al Atlántico y tiro porque me toca, mi siguiente destino me llevó a cruzar Panamá de Oeste a Este para llegar al famoso archipiélago de Bocas del Toro. Este conjunto de islas es una de las zonas más Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | May 12, 2011
  • Santa CatalinaA pesar de que mi idea original era salir de Panamá con destino a Costa Rica después de visitar Boquete, acabé en Santa Catalina con los Alex (una de las muchas ventajas de viajar por libre y sin mucha planificación). Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | May 9, 2011
  • Central American post officesPerhaps the Royal Mail is not so bad after all (though the explanation I was once offered for not redirecting my post - "sorry we ran out of stickers" still defies belief). Though the queues can be lengthy, this is Posted by cmarks in On your Marks | Apr 18, 2011
  • Panama City and the Panama CanalMy first task in Panama City is a visit to the Albrook shopping mall and a trip to the cinema. Hardly the most cultural experience, but a welcome convenience after four months away. I spend hours just walking around: lots Posted by cmarks in On your Marks | Apr 17, 2011
  • BoqueteTras mis aventuras isleñas y metropolitanas, necesitaba cambiar de aires y refrescarme un poco, así que me fui a la única zona de montaña del país junto con un par de mochileros que conocí en Ciudad de Panamá (ambos de Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | May 2, 2011
  • The Joy of StasisWhen I last broke off my exhilarating narrative I was sitting tight in Portobelo looking forward to a pleasant and easy five days cruising the San Blas islands. It didn’t turn out to be as pleasant as expected, even if Posted by tgilmour in Viaje interminable | May 1, 2011
  • Ciudad de PanamáTengo que admitir que Ciudad de Panamá me ha sorprendido mucho. Como de casi todo el país, no sabía muy bien qué esperar, ya que la única referencia que tenía antes de venir era el famoso canal. La Ciudad está Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | Apr 28, 2011
  • Surfing Santa CatalinaSanta Catalina, the mainland town for excursions to Isla de Coiba, is another really special place like Ometepe: a relaxed little town with not too much going on which seems to draw my kind of people. Like Ometepe, you can Posted by cmarks in On your Marks | Apr 15, 2011
  • Rainy Bocas del ToroAs one of my main motivations for coming to Bocas del Toro is diving, I am disappointed to learn that I won't be able to do a night dive as the equipment is not good enough (apparently the "waterproof" flashlights Posted by cmarks in On your Marks | Apr 9, 2011
  • Archipiélago de San BlasEl archipiélago de San Blas, también denominado Kuna Yala, consiste en más de 360 islas ubicadas en la costa caribeña de Panamá. No me hacen falta palabras o imágenes para describiros este increíble lugar, sólo tenéis que cerrar los ojos Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | Apr 21, 2011
  • Llegada a PanamáComo ya había advertido en un post anterior, mi llegada a Panamá no fue tan plácida como yo pensaba, sino toda una aventura. El plan inicial era sencillo: coger un bote desde Capurganá, en Colombia, hasta Puerto Obaldía, pueblo ya Posted by gacela in Gacela por el Mundo | Apr 15, 2011
  • Old and NewDavid was more of a necessary stop-over than a destination in our route. The town wasn't that nice and there wasn't much to do but we needed somewhere to stop-over near the border, run a few errands etc. Our hostel Posted by ew5827 in From Mexico to who knows where | Apr 6, 2011
  • PanaaaamaaaaaThe ten of us that left Fritz the Cat behind on El Porvenir arrived in Panama City after a spray drenched, 2 hour boat ride in a local Kuna fishing vessel, two bus rides and one taxi. We arrived Posted by mwalmsle in Jess and Mike's Excellent Adventure | Apr 2, 2011

  • Central America - Week 23 & 24 (Panama City) [Charlotte] The journey to Capurgana was the journey from hell. There was no direct bus. First, we took a bus to Monteria, where we met Stephen from Vienna. We Posted by lebrunfo in The travelling frogs | Mar 23, 2011
  • Cruising the CaribbeanThe route between South and Central America through the San Blas Archipelago by boat is a reasonably well worn path for backpackers and there were private yachts departing every 2 to 3 days. The vessels range in size with Posted by mwalmsle in Jess and Mike's Excellent Adventure | Mar 21, 2011

  • PanamaOur first stop in Panama was in the volcanic mountain town of Boquete. The cool dry air was a welcome change from the typical Central American humidity. Upon arrival, we booked a tour at an organic coffee farm, Posted by rd2nowhere in Road 2 Nowhere | Mar 18, 2011
