We officialy left Guyana at 2:00 AM Monday, July 16th. After a tough goodbye with our wonderful friends we set off for our Central American tour. We started off in Curacao, a Caribbean island that is a Dutch commonwealth. It is a charming town where they speak a strange mixture of Spanish and Dutch. We managed to eek by with our limited Spanish vocabulary and some strange looks. This stop was merely a layover through Columbia and then finally into Panama City. We arrived safely with no hassles and met up with our Peace Corp friend Melissa who was kind enough to take us under her wing and show us around. We saw the Panama Canal, old Panama City, the president´s house and basically unwound a bit.

We are now en route to Melissa´s site village on the Boca´s Peninsula where we will spend a few relaxing nights. After that it is off to Costa Rica. We are going to do our best to keep you updated on what we are seeing, doing and where we are headed next. Talk to you soon!
