We’re headed out to the small airport this morning to catch a fight to the San Blas Islands where the Kuna tribe lives.
The islands dot the Caribbean and are what you would expect; sandy beaches and coconut trees.
This time the plane was even smaller than the one that we took to the city of David. I think it’s about 12 passenger. The flight was good.
We flew over the canal and then the rainforests and mountains leading to the sea. The water was that picturesque aqua-blue. The San Blas is dotted with hundreds of and the pilot was kind enough to fly low so we could get a closer view.
We were all surprised when we landed at the airport. It was a cement block building resembling a baseball dugout with wooden benches. There was one airstrip and the fence posts lining it had plastic bottles turned upside down on them to make it more visible.
We boarded a small but colorful boat. We had a short ride to the island we would be staying on for the next two nights. The cabins stood at the water’s edge. They were wood, bamboo, and grass with a bed and bathroom. The showers were open at the top and there was no hot water. All of the cabins had a back door with a porch hammocks and an awesome ocean view. The sunsets were spectacular.
