Evil Little Bastard
Dear Reader, our fourth and final day in Panama got off to quite a start. As I mentioned yesterday, Gamboa Rainforest Resort offers quite a number of excursions – a birdwatching trek, a ski lift-style ride for 1.5 km above the roof of the rainforest (which we obviously would have been done had it not been closed for maintenance for another 2 weeks), excursions around the canal, a dugout canoe trip to visit one of the local indigenous tribes, and our choice as the best combination of mildly adventuresome + TBJ-friendly, a boat trip to “monkey island” to see whatever wildlife we could see. If you know me at all, dear reader, you know two things about this – first, a boat trip to see wildlife in a rainforest is not something that I’m going to pass up, and second, that I’ve got a well earned fear of monkeys (with the scar and tattoo to prove it), meaning that this should be interesting.
