The PANAMAniac is Back! (A Post By Stephen)

So this is what I knew about Panama 2 weeks ago (which was awesome and something you should definitely see).

After three plane changes I arrived in Changuanola, Bocas del Toro.

A local village. We came to find the owner of a canoe (we wanted to row up the river to find manatees)
Our search for manatee and other wildlife.

We set up our clinic at the village of a local indigenous tribe.

The main crop for these people is cocao beans.

The kids were great and very appreciative.


After the clinic we took a boat over to this bit of paradise called Boca del Toro. It really looked just like this. It was incredible.
