JUNGLE TOUR OF SAN BLAS
So, here we are in San Blas and we are going on a Jungle Tour!! We will see crocodiles, turtles and lots and lots of birds. We took tons of pictures so most of this page will be pictures. Most of them Rick took but a few Mike on Last Mango took.
So, first meet Jose, our tour guide:
Jose did a fantastic job. Both in driving the panga and in being aware of our wants. Any time any one of us so much as raised the camera or pointed he would slow down or stop or even back up when asked to. It made the trip so much more enjoyable then if he had just kept going.
Now, meet the gang that went along:
On the left are Terri and Lyman from Sans Cles, back middle Jerry (she) and Chris (he) from Misty Michael and front is Gladys and Mike from Last Mango. I think you can pick us out! The rest will mostly be pictures with a few comments here and there.
The first three pictures is where we started from. The last of the three showing the way to the "bano" or bathroom. A must before starting the trip!

This is just a sample of the pictures we all took. We literally took hundreds of pictures but there is no way I am going to get them all on this page! Enough to say that it was an awesome day! The whole trip lasted about four hours and cost just $11.00 U.S. each person with lunch extra. Just another wonderful day of memories!!
