Whatz Up!  Nick Here, writing from the rad bungalow on Bastimentos that im staying at. Geez, where to start. Well, after a long ass travel day (where i really didnt even get hasseled for all my carpentry shit) Erika and i arrived in the kinda crappy town of Bocas del Toro. Ya,  they dont have alot of respect for there land there. Anyways, instantly meet  a few cool ass peeps. Susanna (the land owner), Geo (the caretaker of sorts) and Larry (a burnner who has set up shop in Bocas and is involved in a few big projects there). Got a well deserved good nights sleep, woke up with a few chores to knock out and fianally got ready to head out (island time bro, it takes forever to do anything) So... We stocked up on veggies and fruit and hightailed it the heck out of there destened for Bastimentos. Half hour later, we pulled up to a rad beach with an incredible setup. Multipul bungalows (i have my own, stoked!). Un loaded and it was dark. The next morning Geo and i headed out for a surf sesh. Ya, Geo, he grew up on Kawaii, so he is pretty insane on a board. He dosent mind that i still novis. we went out to Playa Larga a, rad beach break with lefts and rights. The bigger sets came in around head high. and the water is about 85 degresse, (which is suppose to be the chilliest all year) WoW! Yesterday, we did a long hike around one side of the island, cruzed through the Nobe's (indigenous indian tribe) village, drank pinna colladas with a guy from sea-town (played the name game and realized we know some of the same people from back home). Dude... Last night was national geographic going on. Saw a Sloth, a praying mantis eating bugs, a huge hermit crab, a big ass bug that looked like a leaf, golden orb spiders, and the list goes on. Have i mentioned that Susanna is an insane vegetarian shef. My god, the experience has been great. I just got in from a surf with Geo, the neibor Carlos and i. Super fun.... I havent been to Lily's beach yet. she has been in my mind and in my dreams daily. Ill update again soon. Lunch is being served!
