We left early in the morning for a river tour. We went with Deb and her family. There were 10 of us all together.
Walking to get into the canoe
All have life jackets on and ready to go!
There was a guide telling the driver which way to turn
Our guide helped Rose get up to the waterfall
So glad we made the effort to get to the waterfall, it was beautiful!
After the waterfall we continued up river, it really was a fast flowing river
We arrive to be greeted by the Embera Drua Indians
Some of the women have a tatoo on their face, but this is not permanent
I'm getting a tatoo on my ankle
Simular to the Guna Kala Indians, they are very small/short people
This is the kitchen (up above)
This little girl is coming down the stairs from the kitchen
This is the medicine man. They have a school, church, basketball court and houses
The children were adorable!
We had a delicious lunch of fish, plantain and fruit
The women have coins on their tops
After lunch they put on a dancing show with music
Denny & I had a good time dancing!
After a fun day on the water, we went to Old Panama for some shopping. Rose and I got a beautiful new outfit! For dinner we went to the fish market and had fish tacos - yum!
Beautiful sky line!
We leave in the morning for the boat with all our groceries for two months, thanks Randy & Rose for helping us move all our items!
After ten years of planning a trip around the world, we have given up our life on land to head to bluer pastures with the hopes of staying young as long as possible. Our mission is to have fun while moving about the earth. [...]When we finally return to dry land for good, we hope to have seen most of the worlds shore line and experienced things that can only be experienced at 5 knots Of course if we find a place we like and stay there for an extended time, that's ok too.
We have two boys and two grandson's and several friends and family of all ages. Our hope is that those we know will decide to spend some time with us. Life is enjoyed most when you share it with those your closest to.
