Feels Like Home

Feels as if I never left… Here are a few more photos of the day before I head on to the next country! Enjoy 🙂

Got to play a game with my Ngabe soccer team. We had some cool Argentinian-themed jerseys donated for the playoffs.  These girls are about the the toughest around and for sure almost have my back when I get thrown to the ground 🙂 These wonderful young ladies went on to take second in the tournament!

The beautiful view of the rock Peña Blanca from the “infinity pool” discovered by one of my good Peace Corps friends.  The community members always think we are a little crazy to hike up there for “fun”. But how could we resist going to this magical spot!

A little afternoon Slackline practice. Beautiful view, also we weren’t so alone with the herd of cows grazing near by.

The gorgeous rays coming through the clouds as we pop up out of the jungle onto this vista. And of course had some kiddos and dogs come along too!

This is a picture of another indigenous group im Panama, the Embera performing a traditional dance for us. This little girl on the end was a hoot, she was definitely marching to her own beat while yelling out to her little throughout the performance 🙂 Part of their traditional is to paint their skin with the native fruit, jagua.

 

Got to be tía Eti for the day.  Its fun to see one of my Peace Corps friends who has started a family in Panama City.  This is his beautiful little boy James!
