My best friend of 11 years passed away, I feel a hole in my heart and I'll probably never get over it. I'm still a big bunch of sadness but as they say, life goes on. I love you Chilli.

Some pics from my trip:

I have a severe addiction to this now and it's VERY hard to find here...


Panama's best beer:


This is Flores, he was Head of the Bug Control Department back in Panama:


Starfish beach in Panama, they are huge, bright orange and right next to you on the beach. You can't touch them (apparently, it stresses them out) but I accidentally stepped on one. I think that stressed me out more than it stressed the starfish...


That's Bob, or so I named him. The creepiest thing to see while walking around Bocas del Toro at 3 a.m. Funnily enough, you kinda get used to it, I kinda sorta miss him.


That's a literally deserted island in Panama, Zapatilla. Only the forest guard and a bunch of tourists.


Me looking stupid underwater in Zapatilla. After that happened I was stalked by an angelfish and had to leave the water. He would not leave me alone. That's what you get for having bright tattoos in a tropical beach I guess. I'm pretty sure we're married now.


That's Perry on the day we left Panama. That's the view from the dock.


One of the mosaics from Rocking J's, the hostal we stayed at Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. And that's the beach if you couldn't figure it out, the last pic is the reception/surf board rental part of the hostal.




That's the sunset in Tamarindo beach in Costa Rica, I think. I have too many fucking sunsets in my pictures, I should've thought about it more.


You know you're not in Kansas anymore when this is the bedside table reading material. I memorized every single crocodile spot in the country. Brasilito, Costa Rica.


This is what Mena's hair looks like after an attempt at surfing (I failed miserably but had a blast, I could never stand on the board but did a great Big Kahuna impersonation by riding a wave sitting on it)...


And finally the view we had pretty much every day during the last part of our trip, the rainforest and the volcano area in Arenal, Costa Rica. We literally ran up the volcano acting like ninjas. If anybody saw a pair of Mexican dumbasses making "whooosh"-ing noises uphill, yeah, that was us.


Hope you guys have a great day/week/month! I'm out the door to get a haircut and pay some bills!
