Panama Vacation

I am currently in Panama waiting for a german guy i will ride with through Columbia. I will be taking a boat around the Darein gap which takes around 5 days. I have had alot of rest time for my ankle and have been having a great time in costa rica and panama. Before i left Costa I met up with some randoms, Scooter and Annie and climbed chorippo the highest point in the country. At 12,800 feet I spent the night wet and cold trying hard to keep myself warm with a ligher.
I have no photos till I get a new camera in Panama City.
hope all is well with everyone back home.

    Hello from the far north. Glad to hear your doing great. I'd try to persuade you out of Columbia But, people tried to talk us out of the Dalton Hiway too.
    Things in Ak. are just great, what a beautiful place this is. Hope your Mom loves it too.

    Well hello!
    Glad to hear you have rested that ankle and that you will be riding with another. Hope he meets up with you soon.
    What a family! Dad and Mom relocated to Alaska, and you, almost on southern continent. At least your on the warmer end!
    Take care Quinn. We love you and are proud of you. Be safe; stay safe.

    From Rose Mary Gabriel
    Dear Quinn,
    You know that my birthday is Tuesday, so I want to donate .50 cents a mile.
    I understand you are waiting for the German in Panama City. If he doesn't make by Tuesday, you'll have to ride in circles around Panama City! LOL
    It will be Halloween you know, so how about the rest of you helping out in contributing also.
    Glad that you are healthy. Keep up the good work.
    WE LOVE YA!
    Love,
    Aunt Rose Mary

    Hope you're doing well Quinny!
    I told someone here in NYC about you and they couldn't believe that I knew someone so ambitious.
