Panama City to San Jose, Costa Rica

Im now traveling with GAP. A group of 8 people and an amazing tour leader.
Here is the group
John, US, Tour Leader.
Rick, US.
Claude, Canada.
Chris, GB.
Pamela, US.
Stephen, US.
Doug, Australia.
Vilde, Norway.
and me...

We started in Panama City, and went to El Valle after 2 days in the city. After a good hike and a squared tree, we hired a van and went to Boquete. Next stop was Bocas del Toro. Then we crossed the border to Costa Rica and stopped in Puerto Viejo at the Carribbean coast. Paradise!
Then for some of us the trip stopped in San Jose, Costa Rica. But the rest of us picked up some new travelers and a now tourleader.

Here are som pics:
