Sunday really was a bit of a slow day. Late morning all of us bar Helen went snorkeling out on the reef. It was quite choppy but it turned out interesting. Sam and I saw a nurse shark early on. Later, Annie pointed out there was a large fish in a cave. I looked down and it was probably the same nurse shark skulking there. I should have let Annie know they are harmless but she took off. There was a rather large barracuda lurking in the area we were swimming too. The area was fairly abundant with the usual reef minions. Annie is turning out to be the best lobster finder. She found one hiding in the coral but it was a bit small to take back for the pot.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon the kuna selling produce showed up. He only had four crabs but he did have some lobster. These were consumed for evening meal with stir fried veg. We finished up the evening with a movie. At least that’s how it finished for Helen and I. The younger ones stayed up chatting in the dark.<\/p>\n

Today we’re off to Nagana, a densely Kuna populated pair of islands joined by a bridge. The allure of the palm tree covered islands is wearing off and the crew need some town time. The Nagana inhabitants are known to have shed their roots and culture having been reeducated by the missionaries that ply their trade here. Nevertheless, we all need to see something different. Yesterday, I inquired on the morning SSB net about the Diablo river ride and side walk. From the responses it seems worth doing but will take all day. That’s lined up for tomorrow.<\/p>\n
