    Morning on Coiba Island-Panama

    We are up at sunrise, and what a spectacular sunrise it is. We’re not avid bird watchers, more avid animal of any kind watchers, so when the opportunity arises to go on a bird watching hike, it sounds like the makings of a wonderful morning. Light continues to seep into the sky as our skift…

  • Staying at Oasi-Caye Caulker

    Staying at Oasi-Caye Caulker

    When it comes to accommodations, we can go either way. For short trips and trips where we are crazy busy running around, a clean, safe place to fall into bed is all that is really needed. For a more relaxed trip where we know we will be spending a decent amount of time at our…
