What a great week it is turning out to be. Buddy and Gina made it here from the states fore a week and are having a blast. I picked them up in Carti after they had an adventurous Jeep ride through the mountains from Panama city.
After visiting a small store we took off for Chichime and ran into my good friends Jamie & Lisa on Wild Goose. I was excited to hear they are going to have a baby and were getting married by the Kuna the following day. Sam made a wonderful 
wedding cake for them and the Kuna threw us a shindig. They smoked a large grouper and cooked 30 or so lobsters with rice. The ceremony was quick and involved the women bathing (splashing sea water on the bride) and the same for the groom. They laid in a hammock together while a few 
words were said, and badabing, they were married Kuna style. The whole wedding cost under $100 including Lisa’s Kuna wedding dress, beer, fish, and lobsters. The boats chipped in $20 bucks each to cover their expenses. as a wedding gift. Sam and I gave them some extra solar panes we had.
Buddy, Gina, Sam and I will be cruising around the area for the next week and after that Sam and I will head off for Isla Linton and Sam will fly back to the states to visit family and bring our little munchkin back. 
Life has really slowed down in the past few months. It’s good to be in the water shooting fish and living simple again. Sorry for the lack of updates the last week but I didn’t have any access to internet. The pictures are complements of Buddy, I’ll get another camera soon.
Cheers from the beaches of the San Blas.
Life is good.
