20/01/15 Bocas del Toro

A treat today, no early rise and breakfast, rest day, unfortunately, our body clocks were still set on early rise time, we had a lye in and didn't head down to breakfast till about 8.30am. A long breakfast, on the terrace overlooking the Caribbean Sea.  Upstairs to the lounge area for a bit of Blogging, reading and relaxing. We then headed into the small township on Island of Colon, beautiful houses, and buildings, tourism is really taking off there. wandered around for a few hours. back to our hotel for the heat of the day, rested, read. Headed out again search of the white beach near the cemetery the others had told us about. found the beach and saw more of the Island. Headed back through the main town area, lots of people out and about, street food carts setting up, lots of music and street performers. We had dinner on the water, then walked back and stopping for an ice cream on the way home. Some of the others had dinner at El Ultimo Refugio the food was fantastic and said to be one of the best places to eat on the Island.  The Island had a great relaxed feel to it, it reminded Paul of his childhood holidays to Burrum Heads.
