Carribean Knights


Our week in the sun, we are glad to report
Put us smack on the coast in our great tent resort


Sleeping on sweaters, we fought the terrain,
Which was constantly muddied through wet nights of rain


In Cahuita we surfed en el Carbe Mar
And took a boat trip to go esnorclear


By foot and beach cruiser, around town we scooted 
Munching bananas and cantaloupe ´til we were way over-fruited



After four misty days we went south to the border,
To get our last week of vacation in order


With our sights on the bridge which would lead us to Panama
The bus-walk-bus-walk-bus-boat trip truly tested our stamina



We snorkled then surfed in Bocas del Toro
´Til scuffed feet and bruised ribs made our bodies too sore...oh


We trekked muddy trails through the jungle´s long reach


To play in the waves of old Wizard Beach


Bastimentos, Carenero, and Isla Colon,


For three days we were glad to call Bocas our home
