We had breakfast made in the community kitchen, cooking the groceries that we bought the night before, and ate in the lovely dining room. We spoke with some of the other travellers staying at the hostel to garner information about the town and various tours, etc.
hostal in Boquete
In the centre of Boquete is the Parque de las Madres, which is home to flowers, a fountain and a children playground. Currently, an addition is being built unto the fountain to celebrate Boquete´s hundredth anniversary.
The main street of the Park doubles as a bus station. Behind the park we discovered a lovely bridge over a river with amazing scenery containing lovely gardens belonging to the homes built on the river.

We also met a lovely massage therapist, from Boston, whose office space doubled as her home. Her ´cabin´was in the middle of a paradise of more lovely gardens. She had been living in Boquete for five years and considered it her home. During the day, we also met a wonderful man, a chiropractor, whose home was about 15 minutes outside of town, a condo which is decorated impeccably. His condo was one of fifteen different buildings on the edge of a canyon spectacular. He has been living in Boquete for about two years.
We also researched our tours for the next day, April lst, decided to do zip lining in the morning and touring a coffee plantation in the afternoon. We had supper at a local cafeteria, spending $7.00 for our two meals. We later discovered that this was the best local place to eat in town. That is why it was full of many locals.
