Las Perlas

I honestly admit, that before we got to the south caribbean and started planing our trip after the panama canal, i had no idea this archipelago existed....just approximately 50 miles off panama city.
and it seems like i am not the only one lacking this knowledge - so the islands are rather quiet....and stunningly beautiful.
with their coconut palms and beaches it was just the right place to gain a bit of stamina before heading off for our 7 nighter to galapagos and get into the groove again after a rather stressed out time in panama.


mark refined his skills in opening coconuts, i refined my skills in drinking coconut milk....you see, we simply complete each other ;)

on our first miles on the pacific to the archipelago we saw wales, dolphins, caught a few fish and had a hitch-hicker all the way there.
unfortunately he left quite a mess as he is not familiar with pump-toilets.



our first hitchhiker - a red footed boobie

after a short lunch he swapped sides

hard yakka!


keep practicing.....

.....get that "eye" out....


....and finally - i get a drink!


golden cow nose rays

"Pacifica" - the calm one
