This is as good and better than everyone has said, Isla
Colon and the surrounding islands are amazing!!! Arriving on friday i met one of the ausie girls that i´v now bumped into 4 times since cuba. we headed off on a cruise and some snorlking around nearby islands, was gorgeous but rainy. Then on sunday we bused with two other guys up to Bocas del Drago, an amazing untouched place with a narrow beach along the jungle dipping into still warm waters. I feel in love instantly and decidede the coconut trees were too perfect not to enjoy so we rented bikes and returned with hammock yesterday. Also went to bluff beach which was also all ours and magical wide yellow sand with big waves stretching towards the horizan! Last night was great in the hammocks and with our bonfire and rum. Not to mention the monkeys, stars, phosphorous, coconuts and much more!!

Not jealous at all!!!
Thanks Davey, that has really cheered up my Thursday!!! I'm not in the slightest bit jealous...I'm a liar of course I am!!! Sounds fantastic, at least the weather still hasn't turned miserable here so that's some consolation I suppose. Was out practicing my driving last night, and have a lesson tonight. It's going okay, my reversing round the corner leaves a lot to be desired though!! Heading out later to 'Pirate Sounds' gig in the Spiegeltent as part of the Fringe Festival that's on at the moment. Should be good, Mundy, Lisa Hannigan, Cathy Davey playing. Heading to Limerick tomorrow night and then wedding in Tralee on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing you next weekend, enjoy the rest of your relaxation with the monkeys! As Dad said Irish sport has gone from bad to worse, last night's performance against the Czechs has all but put us out of Europe. At least Liverpool are doing okay, otherwise we'd have to give up on sport altogether!! See you soon,

Fun on the Beach!
I can just picture it - wonderful place and you just totally chilled out - like in the rain on Cococay Beach!
Great time at Jan's wedding - lots of champagne, wine, dancing and fun! Jan and Barry looked brilliant and so happy. Enjoy the rest of the adventures and can't wait to see you. Flight from Miami hasn't changed. Chat at the week-end in Paul's place. All my love, Mum xxxx
All good things must come to.....
David,
Great to hear you briefly last night.
Don't forget Ireland are going to put on a great show against Georgia!!! Hopefully.
We will try to hold the fine weather at least for your return but it will be difficult.
Hope the final few days in Panama are good and give our regards to all in Miami and don't visit too many hotspots or try to lead your innocent brother astray.
talk to you over the weekend and will certainly miss the exciting & decriptive blogs.
Love
D
