We are heading to Costa Rica tomorrow! Our adventure starts with a 15 hour bus ride to San Jose.  We will be visiting La Fortuna, Montezuma, Jaco, Manuel Antonio, Dominical, Malpais, Playa Hermosa and more.  Andrew and I are beyond excited!!!!!!! Ciao for now

Our visit to the Embera Tribe. They live on a dam called Lake Alajuela on the upper side of the Chagres River, an hour away from Panama City plus 45 minutes by canoe.

 They caught us local fish from the river...delicious!  The meal was followed by a beautiful traditional dance.
