Wow! We've just spent all our pesos in the local market in Havana.

Lots to tell when we get home. We're on our way to the airport now.

See you all soon!

Monday

We haven't seen any Internet cafés here in Cuba. We are just passing through small villages which is giving us a real insight into life on the island.

We are now on our way to the beach, then it's back to Havana for salsa lessons .....

Now Leaving Costa Rica

Sunday 10.40pm

All successfully through Costa Rica customs - lots of pieces of paper needed!

We have just boarded the plane to Panama, with 30 minutes now to take off. We spent all our Costa Rica currency in the Duty Free!

Saturday

We are just leaving Monteverde. Every day is action-packed, so there's not always much chance to blog!

We set off on a hike with hanging bridges at 7am today! Everyone is in high spirits but sorry to be leaving Costa Rica.

Friday

We went caving in the morning and then trekking near the Arenal volcano. We spent the early evening at some hot springs and then had a lovely dinner.

Tomorrow we're off to Monteverde. We are all well and happy!
