Awesome Bocas

We are here now in Bocas del Toro, Panama. We were able to get in to Bocas Yacht club & Marina. Finally we have some decent Internet so we can get pictures and text downloaded to blog!! We are loving it here. We have met some really fun and interesting people that have been cruising and have decided to stay in Bocas del Toro. Bocas del Toro (aka Bocas Town) is below the hurricane belt and the hurricane season is approaching fast, most of the cruisers are hanging here until the season is over. It is a great spot where there is a funky town, surf, diving, great cruising grounds and fun people. We are staying here until we have a weather window to head north although this is one of the first places we both feel like we could stay longer. We definitely will have to make our way back through this area! The tentative plan now is to wait here until we have a weather window to start heading north towards Isla Providencia, Columbia. We are close to being up to date with our blog except there are more pictures that we need to load. We hope to continue to update the blog as we get Internet time. Looks like we are going to leave Saturday morning and will be at sea for several nights and do not know what the Internet access will be along the Moskito Coast or around the Nicaragua Bank. Stay tune. We hope to hear from you. We sure miss everyone and hope all are staying healthy!
