Semana Santa real quick

Semana Santa was fun, illnesses aside! Panama was an interesting adventure- the border was relatively quick and easy compared to Nicaragua, and you had to walk over a really cool bridge to get to it. Bocas was a really interesting little cluster of islands- I wish I had gotten to experience them more, but alas, I was pretty much holed up asleep in a hostel bed for 3 days. Chris and Michelle and Zak and Cito and everyone had a lot of neat adventures, though! The downside was that the trip was pretty expensive, and Panama is hard to get around transportation-wise. We had a 14 hour epic journey back to Puntarenas one day, but it wasn't so bad!

It was also awesome to hang out with Chris! We went to Montezuma after Panama, which was beautiful! We hung out on the beach and at the waterfalls, and of course the geodesic dome. I definitely plan on spending more time there before the semester ends. Unfortunately, Chris had to leave yesterday- the trip flew by! Beware: If you bring beans in a bag home, put them in your checked luggage! Sorry about your loss, Chris. I will make sure to replace them, and of course, eat some in your honor.

There isn't really anything new to report, but there is a Marine Bio trip to Manuel Antonio this weekend. We get to snorkel and hang out in the National Park, so it should be really nice.
