Hi
Now in Panama City !
Had an intresting last week at camp, apprently the massive earth quake in Chile had caused tsunami warnings for the entire Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Only no one told us ! We were really shocked,but found it quite funny. Decided to stay the night in town so we could all leave early on Wed morning, we got a boat across to a near by town where we got a taxi to the Costa Rica/Panama border.
Had bit of trouble trying to get across the boarder as you need a ticket saying that your going to leave Panama again, but apprently plane tickets dont count. So after been queing for over an hour we were told we would have to go and buy a $15 return bus ticket that we would never use. Took two bus journeys to get to Panama City, which wern't too bad, ended up getting in for 10pm. Got a taxi to our hostel, which is in the middle of a really dogey area. When we arrived we were given a map by the hostel reception and shown the areas where we should never go as there too dangerous. Spent the evening relaxing at the bar under the hostel.
