Departed Volcan on the 21st for Boguete, short ride, which is on the eastern side of Volcano Baru. Rather than go south into David and up, I took a short cut along the base of the volcano which was a a fantastic ride, paved road but lots of hills and turns

Song of the day: Knock Three Times, Tony Orlando and Dawn

Along the road to Boguete:

Boquete is mostly an agricultural area with many coffee plantations and lots of expats. It's some of the most beautiful country I've seen.
