After a 10 hour bus adventure, with a flat tire in the middle, I arrived in Rio Dulce, and was greeted by a smiling Biff at the Litegua station where he was waiting patiently. After grabbing a bite to eat, we boated down river to the Bum Bum Rum (pronounced Boom Boom Room in spanish) where Biff rents an apartment, along with several other cruisers (a lively bunch) who are living on their boats, or in adjacent rooms.
A morning boat ride up to Monkey bay offered up a glimpse of several howler monkeys rustling around in the tree tops announcing their presence with their signature "howl", which according to Biff, sounds like a bull being castrated... lovely.
Instead of being laughed at, or stared at, the monkeys simply expressed how they felt about me with their facial expression as shown in the photo above. At least they didn't show their feelings in a physical way (Tyler - you know what I speak of...).
Well, it's off to Quirigua, and to plan for the next adventure - down the river to Livingston...
Hasta Luego
