Playa Santa Clara, is a wide expanse of sand over 2 miles long, dotted with beach huts, wooden shelters and bars selling beer at 80 cents a pop. Only a few people are around and after dusk our group are the only folk around, apart from some inquisitive dogs.
So thus starts a month on the road on a big truck and 13 other ´travellers´. You can´t say tourist. oh dear no. and apparently we´re responsible travellers to boot. What exactly is an irresponsible one? Oh yeah, Lisbon last year springs to mind...
Anyhoo everyone seems cool and relaxed. We´ve a wide age range 24 - 55 and split 50-50 boys and girls. Everyone has to pitch in and cook, clean and generally help out. I have the glam task of loading and unloading the bags every day. I might get fit yet.
We also checked out the Miraflores locks on the Panama canal. If you want to take a cruise ship through, make sure you have 250,000 dollars in your sky rocket. Next stop is over the border into Costa Rica. Hopefully by then i´ll have worked out how to upload photos. Ha!
