Diary Notes From San Blas Island Oddities and Orcas
A fragmented San Blas diary describes island life during a visit. The writer recalls encounters with residents and visitors, local barter scenes, a hotel, a chief nicknamed Roosevelt, and the curious mix of traditions and modern tourism. The final entry hints at departure plans and goodbyes with gifts exchanged.
