V-Day: Camino de Cruces

On Valentine's day Heidi and I went on an awesome hike with friends on a trail here called, Camino de Cruces. This trail is OLD. It was used by the Spaniards back in the 1500's to haul their loot across the isthmus of Panama. You can still hike the trail from Panama City, on the Pacific (south) side of Panama, to Colon, on the Caribbean (north) side. I have to say that this was one of the best Valentine's day holidays that I have had. Not just because we didn't spend money, but because Heidi and I were able to enjoy nature together and do something we like to do.

These two pictures below are from the top of a waterfall that is dried up right now. When rainy season comes, we've been told it is extremely powerful and beautiful. We got close to the edge and it was a long way down; don't let the picture fool you! All and all it was a beautiful day topped off with a Spaghetti dinner at home! What did you do for V-day?
