Total fail

I've been a total failure at keeping up with posts...sorry! Bear with me, because I came down with a nasty stomach sickness yesterday. This has never happened to me in Panama before, because the water in Panama City is very clean and fine to drink. I blame the water at the field station--every so often, they run out of water because people steal parts of the pipe down the road, so they have to call in a water truck to fill up tanks on site. I have a feeling the tanks are not the cleanest...sigh. I know travelers in Mexico call this "Montezuma's revenge" but since I'm in Panama I think I'll call it "Colombia's revenge" since the US helped "liberate" Panama from Colombia.
