So I just got back from Costa Rica/Panama. It was the most awesome thing I have ever experienced and I have the most fucking disgusting sunburn anyone has ever seen to prove it. I slept next to a sloth. I hung out with little monkeys. I swam with a barracuda that could eat your head. I rode on a bus in 90+ degree weather with 14 year old stareadactyl boys who looked as if they wanted to have their way with me and it was gross. I crossed the Panamanian border, which is a rickety bridge that was probably built when Pangaea separated. I snorkled off a clear water, white sand beach that was ten times more beautiful than anything I've ever seen on tv. I saw nurse sharks and parrot fish and hundreds of other beautiful sea creatures I never imagined I'd ever see in the flesh. Speaking of flesh, mine is coming off in chunks. I am a full fledged, card carrying cracker. All and all, I'd say I had an okay time. On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd maybe give it about an eleventybillionthousand. Not bad. You guys should probably go there if you haven't checked it out yet. I'll put up some pictures as soon as I can.
Later, k
