PANAMA
SAN BLAS - PARADISE ISLANDS (Feb 2007)
photos
San Blas Islands are interesting because of their outstanding beauty
and because of the Kuna people who live there. I visited a
few of
the islands and camped on one of them for 5 days. The islands where
towns are build are quite ugly, but the ones where only 1 family
harvests coconut are spectacular. The islands exceeded my
expectations and the only problem were some of the Kuna people.
They see tourists as a source of dollars, and apart of
overcharging (which is nothing new), someone stole money on 2 occasions
from other people staying on the same island.
I´m not going to describe this paradise, just have a look at
the photos!
