Escaping from the city

After visiting customs, the AT was booked into Panama at last! We then escaped from the city to El Valle in the hills, located in the crater of an extinct volcano, where the weather was cooler. We enjoyed a beautiful experience with some rescued Sloths that cannot not be released back into the wild.

The Panamanian Golden Frog in a rescue centre - they are unfortunately extinct in the wild.

A hike in the hills to the 'Sleeping Indian Girl' with a view over the crater.

We stayed at Santa Catalina on the Pacific coast to watch some surfing - we will have a go later in a cheaper country!

As we are now in the rainy season we have been caught in some torrential downpours!
