So this week we arrived at an awesome deserted anchorage, "Hot Tub", but it didn't take us too long to find out why we were the only ones here... crocodiles!! Oh oh!

But the San Blas has many anchorages and islands to explore.. let's just hope that huge crocodile stays on Crocodile Island (just around the corner from our new anchorage, 'Swimming Pool').
