Bocas del Toro - day 6

We woke this morning after a night of rain that never stopped. It poured all night, but by morning, it had all cleared out. We even saw the sun for the first time since we have been here. So after another delicious breakfast at Lula's, we headed off to the downtown area to find a water taxi.

We took a short ride on a water taxi to Isla Carenero. We asked to be dropped off at Bibi's, one of the restaurant/bars on the island. While there we found some real nice little thatched huts for rent at decent prices. Well, maybe next time we come to this island paradise.

We walked back around the island along the beach, and saw many lots, some with structures on them, for sale. Hmmmmm, I thought. Then Jan slapped me and got me on my way back to reality.
















We soon found another water taxi on the other side to take us back to Isla Colon, where Bocas del Toro is. There we ate a small lunch at one of the waterfront hotels/restaurants.

After some shopping we returned back to Lula's and relaxed. And once again, the rain came fast and hard. Off and on for the rest of the afternoon. We sliced open the mango and pineapple, and had a tasty treat for the afternoon. We also pretty much killed what we had left of the rum since we couldn't take it with us.

We met some very nice couples from all over and one single lady from Japan here at Lula's. One couple was from Paris, France, another from Denmark. Others here were from the states. We enjoyed discussing the days activities and tours with them in the evening while sitting out on the balcony.

Tomorrow we leave. I think we would've liked to stay another week since there is so much to see and do.
