Cycling from Alaska to Argentina Travelogue - April 2010 Travelogue

Another day off in the city of David gave me a chance to catch up on answering a few emails, and enquiring about boats from Panama to Columbia. I have written to the Steel Rat boat, asking for a place on the fifth of May, and am eagerly waiting a reply. This would give me two weeks to play with before I needed to be in Panama City, and the boat has gotten good reviews from other cyclists. If they don't have a place, I will head straight to Panama City and try to organise another boat. Whilst I am waiting for the reply, I will hang around in David for a few days, as its a cheap place to base myself, with the dorm only costing 8 dollars. I also have access to free internet and coffee, books and conversations in English. Oh, did I mention there was also a McDonalds nearby ??? !!!

the water filter turned out to be one of the best and most useful bits of kit i have.
Handy for rivers as well as filtering mexican and central american tap water. not only is it saving a few dollars on buying water every day, but also has meant that i have had to throw away less plastic bottles.

Hi Dave,

Ive been reading your equipment list and noticed your water filter. Would you recommend getting one for a trip like this or has it not proved that useful?

Hi Hilary,
I have not seen them, or heard rumour of them... yet! Such is the way sometimes. Would be great to bump into them, as i bet they have some ace stories !!
