Bocas del Toro –

We get up quite late and have an extended breakfast – you cannot get such a big breakfast in any hotel !

Afterwards, we pack our fins & masks, get us some drinks for in between the dives (as we previously noticed quite a few times when shopping in Bocas, it seems that there are a lot of Asian immigrants here – and many seem to have built up businesses like supermarkets here) and head to La Buga. Our equipment gets stored under the seats of the boat, the drinks get in the cooler. We are a total of 11 people – a group of 3 girls who are about to get their OWD license, Karly, their instructor, the captain, a Dutch couple and a quite young boy, which will all scuba dive with Ena, Lucy and me. And yet, it doesn’t feel crowded at all on the boat. One walk freely on the whole deck without bumping into each other.
