...穿越中南美的方法:從巴拿馬到哥倫比亞
中美洲和南美洲雖然土地相連,但巴拿馬和哥倫比亞之間的森林地區(Darien Gap)卻令人無法陸路穿越。要從中美去南美,就只有走海空兩路,共通點:都是貴!為了省錢,我每天躲在Hostel努力上網查資料,最終決定參加四天三夜的快艇Island .... (read more) “穿越中南美的方法:從巴拿馬到哥倫比亞”
...Dream Trip Day 141-145: San Blas Beach Time
Took the 4D3N San Blas Island Tour on speed boat from Panama to Colombia. A few hours on the super bumpy speed boat per day, sleeping on hammocks on beautiful islands, waiting to be fed by two pretty guides. Watching the clear blue sea on the white sand beach. ....

...Dream Trip Day 132-140: HK? Panama?
The transit from Costa Rica to Panama was soooooo long. Started early by carrying a huge backpack down the rugged path downhill. The bus towards the border came 1 hour later than normal. Freaking me out as the next bus is at 3pm... The closed post office at the border doesn't have an outdoor mailbox so I gotta ask the vendor outside to help sending the postcards for me the next day. .... (read more) “逐夢 Day 132-140: 香港?巴拿馬?”
...Dream Trip Day 118-131: Wildlife in Costa Rica
Leaving the so-called CA4 area means end of passport problems. Hurray! The only problem is you have to show proof of leaving the country by any means. My travelmate have just bought her ticket back home in USA. So the rest is easy, you know how. If you don't, there's a bunch of bus companies selling tickets back to Nicaragua. Borrow one from the travellers heading north. Or buy one, show and get your chop, then sell it to travellers heading north. Or buy the cheapest one (around US$10) and throw it away. ....

...逐夢 Day 105-117: Nicaragua看火山、學滑浪
Leon以漂亮殖民建築聞名,也許是天氣不夠好,整體感覺一般,大教堂成了背景,努力想拍下飛翔的白鴿。另外,看見一幅諷刺西班牙入侵拉美,強傳宗教的壁畫,似乎反殖民比殖民風更有看頭。
至於首都Managua,和其他中美首都一樣治安麻麻,加上沒甚麼有趣景點,如果不是旅伴J有位多年沒見的舊朋友要見,大概會直接跳過。誰知道會遇上貴人呢? .... (read more) “逐夢 Day 105-117: Nicaragua看火山、學滑浪”
...Dream Trip Day 98-104: No whaleshark in Utila, and Panick at Border
The Bay Islands of Honduras is a must go for me for the opportunity to see and / or swim with whale shark! It's also a relatively cheap place for learning diving. However, I feel robbed when I realized the 1hour boat costs me US$25! Almost wanted to give up. LP said that it's better to take motion sickness pills for this ride. I was a bit doubtful but anyway swallowed one. While I was making my sandwich on board, the ferry left the pier and the staff started to distribute plastic bags to each passengers. I was amused with the seriousness but not for long. .... (read more) “逐夢 Day 98-104: Utila沒有鯨鯊 與 邊境檢疫驚魂”
...Dream Trip Day 94-97: New travel mate in Honduras
Finally left Guatemala yet faced another difficulty in Honduras: stuck in the border town with no more bus to Copan for the day. Tired of the border run and with no Honduras Limperia on hand. With the help of a strange man who seems to be an agent or what, we got the money and found a prison-like hotel room to stay for the night and then fled early the next morning. ....
