Our Mission Trek team headed out from Panama City to the Caribbean side of Panama and Bocas Del Toro. While there we worked on several construction projects and made several presentations of local indigenous schools. The last day of our trip we joined with the Cabezon family for a day of sight-seeing. We traveled to Colon and then up the coast through Portebelo and on to Isle Grande, a small island 1/2 mile off the shore – a beautiful and relaxing way to finish our two week adventure.

Chris’s SectionWe left Ayuthaya by train heading north ultimately to Sukhothai. We went with a guy called Ian who was in our guesthouse in Ayuthaya. He’s a really nice guy. First we had to get a train to Phitsanulok which cost us 450 baht 9. A bit pricey we thought even though it’s a 4 hour journey but we got ac and teacoffee plus lunch included. We then got a bus from Phitsanulok to S

We take a short drive around town to see the notable sights such as the capitol building and Temple Square.
