walkings

Our delicious pig after being roasted around 6 hours. location: Mandu Taitu Hostel kitchen in Bocas del Toro, Panama.

Basimentos Isl., Polo's Beach, Panama. Old bradley with that crazy guy in the superman boxers, polo. The other guy is a guard "guarding" the land around polo's place. There were four "guards" who hung out with polo during their entire shift.

Isle de Ometepe, Nic. This island is my baby. This is where the farm was and where i spent most of my time. The volcano on the left is concepcion and the one on the right is maderas.

This dude is Nelson. Nelson did not stop smiling the entire time i knew him. He worked on the farm and it was his family that i worked with and who's house i slept through the earth quake in.

Bradley on top of concepcion. The hike up has 7 km. the first three were flat while the last 4 had a change in elevation of 1500 meters. The total height of the volcano is something like 1630 meters. really hard hike, but i made it up and down in 6 hours and 10 min. That was a record for my guide. The background is the outline of the maderas side of the island.

This was a shot i took from directly outside my tent. Concepcion at sunset.

Finally, your loving brad leaving ometepe on the ferry. good times.

If i get some really cool photos from the betsies i'll go ahead and put those on here too.

Till then,

love and smiles
