Well its been a busy trip to Panama. We came to see dentists and doctors in Panama City and have some fun.

From what we have experienced in the past getting anything done is not simple and typically takes time in Panama but we have definitely been impressed with the medical process. It took us 2 days to get an appointment to see English speaking dentists and doctors, including having tests done. That’s unheard of in Canada.

We could not believe all the things that had changed from our last trip to the city.

The metro (subway) is operational and is only 0.35c to ride.

The ring road around Casco Antiguo is complete and seems to have eased traffic congestion. There is even an amazing bike/ walking paths.

High rise buildings that were under construction are built and the cobblestone roads in Casco Antiguo are done and look great.

The city all looks so much cleaner as there’s not so much road construction compared to our previous trip. There has also been a change in government so it will be interesting to see the changes that will happen there. Hopefully for the good.

The Bio Museum is partially open after being started 10 yrs ago. Great architecture but a little expensive for what’s open.

Some friends Randy and Judy from Pedasi invited us to their Panama City apartment to meet some friends. We ended up meeting Jakub Pustina, a tenor opera singer from Chekoslovakia who was singing in Panama so yes we went along to his concert. A bit of culture and an amazing theatre, which had been built in 1907.

With the World Cup being on everywhere was busy with people watching the futböl. Love the half time entertainment in one of the places we were for the final game.

Brett spotted something he really liked. The Unimog not the one on top.

We went on a road trip while waiting for paperwork to be complete.
