Pangea

Last night we were picked up at the airport and driven by shuttle to a hostel called Pangea where the volunteer program organized for us to stay. Met a guy from Seattle doing some traveling on his own and a couple of guys who go to school in Deleware. Cool people. The hostel is pretty sweet with painted jungle walls, a pool, a bar with music going all night. A really nice man from the volunteer organization met us there and got us all set up with our arrangements. Then we had some drinks with a couple of girls that have been doing the program for about a month now and had only the best things to say about their experience! We may have informed some people we were going to be saving turtles in a place called Jaco...well this is about the time in the night they sprung it on us that apparently me and Cass are going to be on the opposite side of the country as we thought. On the coast of the Caribean side...but actually right over the border in Panama...working with MANATEES to start. I hope I spelled that right. Anyways...after 2 weeks me way switch to turtles on the Pacific Coast. Sounds like this place is really remote so I got up early before taking our shuttle over there because I have no idea how much internet access they have. Hopefully we'll be able to write a few times in the next couple weeks. So far...Pangea Hostel headed to Manatees in Panama. Till next time...PEACE
