IrenkaHOST
Yeah, we were trying to look for a boat and then a friend said they've got a boat, a boat that was not being used.
IrenkaHOST
It was in Panama, Bocas del Toro, actually.
WoodyHOST
Yeah.
IrenkaHOST
And do we want to go and live on that boat? It sounded like a great idea, didn't it? Because we wouldn't have to buy the boat.
Jim KimballGUEST
that.
Jim KimballGUEST
They had a lot of historical information on Bocas del Toro.
Jim KimballGUEST
You know, you could see this enclave with all these islands and you start all this dreaming.
Jim KimballGUEST
Oh, my God, the reefs, the fishing, the surfing.
Jim KimballGUEST
Oh, my gosh.
Jim KimballGUEST
And all the information we could find were these old historical documents from the archives of the United Fruit Company because they had originally the business formed in Bocas del Toro in 1898 or something like that.
Jim KimballGUEST
And we still use one of those infrastructures for one of our tours today, an unbelievable nature tour that we take for birding and wildlife.
Jim KimballGUEST
And that that infrastructure that was Panama's first canal actually was part of the way that they got started here in this province.
RayHOST
Our next country up is Panama.
RayHOST
Panama has an incredible variety of scenery, from the palm-covered San Blas Islands, surrounded by clear Caribbean water, to the beaches and colorful waterfront communities of Bocas del Toro.
RayHOST
Inland, lush rainforest gives way to cool mountain towns and hillsides covered in coffee farms.
RayHOST
And in Panama City, a modern skyline rises above the Pacific, just minutes from the historic streets of Casco Viejo.
ChrisHOST
Dropping a lighter and having it explode two meters from the front door of an Istanbul airport.
ChrisHOST
Having my ribs broken by a bull in Panama, also in Bocas del Toro where my injury happened.
ChrisHOST
wow so many other stories by far the scariest though was when I was back in 1999 hitchhiking from northern Mexico I got a ride with two fellow Canadians and we got lost in the mountains for 12 hours
Harry JaggardHOST
this guy's an OG 1999 he was hitchhiking that means he's like he's uh definitely older than us so he's got yeah the older guys they always have the craziest stories
Paige HoelGUEST
It's kind of similar to your story.
Paige HoelGUEST
I was in Panama a couple of years ago for a surfing trip and we were around Bocas del Toro and there was a specific like kind of lagoon that we went night snorkeling at.
Paige HoelGUEST
And sure enough, there was just it was glowing.
Paige HoelGUEST
It was incredible.
Brianne RobergeHOST
So taking off next week, we will actually be landing in Panama next.
Brianne RobergeHOST
Heading to one of the islands, Bocas del Toro, where we're going to spend a little bit of time before we actually start moving on and expanding our horizons in terms of different countries.
Brianne RobergeHOST
We have previously been to Panama, but I'm still excited because we haven't actually been to the island.
Brianne RobergeHOST
And we're going to get some diving in and obviously check out a brand new area that we are not familiar with.
NikoGUEST
It was kind of a working vacation to Panama back in 2014.
NikoGUEST
And they were there in Bocas del Toro, which is the province next to where they eventually disappeared for two weeks doing a crash course in Spanish that only one of them learned any Spanish during this period.
NikoGUEST
They're Dutch.
NikoGUEST
