Lloyd Aereo Boliviano - Pope poop


It is extremely diffucult to exaggerate when describing the horrors suffered when flying with Lloyd Aereo Boliviano.

A total delay of some 60 hours on the trip Buenos Aires - Panama - Buenos Aires should be enough to drive any person completely mad.

An interesting feature about this plane, which took us from Panama to Bolivia, is that the pope (the previous, shaky one) has taken the same flight, which means that His Holiness has no doubt used the WC depicted here. It could even be his brown on the picture!

Holy shit!

Panama Airport

A couple of pics from the Airport in Panama, where we had to stay overnight because the shitheads of Lloyd Air Boliviano couldn´t find the plane we were going with, and didn´t have the brains to tell us before we got to the airport.

It was a nice airport, though, with complementary wheelchairs and a bar. Despite the wheelchairs, however, I have my doubts regarding the wheelchairfriendliness of the elevators.

Bar Pizza, Bocas del Toro, Panama


Near the beach; about 10 meters into the water, Bar Pizza is hovering peacefully just above sea level.

Isla Bastimentos, famous snorkler´s paradise at the caribbean coast of panama, is a great place to relax. Sitting here at Bar Pizza, enjoying a beer while watching the fish swim by, colourful or not, depending on which way they were swimming.

Not a sound, except the wind in the palm trees, a tropical bird screaming as it realizes that God may not exist and that it´s all alone in the universe, and, of course, the occational "plop" in the water.

Ticabus



The trip from San José, Costa Rica to Panama City lasts no less than 17 hours, including 4 hours at the border. The seats are practically non-reclinable, but the WC functions quite well.


After crossing the border, the bus company spoiled us with the following five films:

  • Wrongfully Accused, aka Leslie Nielsen ist sehr verdächtig
  • Little Man
  • Hot Shots
  • Hot Shots 2
  • The Animal w/ Rob Schneider
