Panama

For Thanksgiving this year we spent two weeks in Panama with my Husbands sister and her family, who live there as AG missionaries. It was our first time to this country, and we were blasted by its sticky heat the moment we stepped off the airplane! One week was spent in Panama City, the other at a beach house on the Pacific coast in Coronado, which is where my nieces senior pics took place. We were able to see a lot and visit a few places in the two weeks we were there. I loved, looooved the tropical plants and some of the old architecture we saw in a spectacular old, yet up and coming part of Panama City! You can bet I got a few pictures there!


So here they are, a few pictures from our trip! It only took me three months to post them. Starting to think we went at the wrong time though! I could really use a break from this snow and cold NOW!!!


The next two pictures were at Panama Viejo, the old ruins in Panama City.

The following beach pics were at Playa Serena, lots of black sand and seashells to go arround.

Of course we visited the Canal.

The next two were taken in a little village called El Valle, way up in the mountains. We almost didn't survive the windy trek!

A view of the City from the restaurant we were at arround dusk. The coconut rice was soooo addicting!

The rest of the pics were taken at Casco Antiguo, or Old Panama. This was my favorite leg of the trip. Tons of culture here along with some new and old. 





Enjoy Life!
