And still there are protests

Hard to believe we have been in Panama for over two weeks. The protests and road blocks started the day after we arrived and continues. For us it means no trips further afield. Why take a chance of getting stuck in a road block when we have everything we need right here in this little town.

This time of year the ocean is relatively calm. And because it is still in rainy season there is enough cloud cover to make hanging out at the beach quite comfortable. Easy to make this our main activity.

And walking is always a pleasure.

We have friends who have gone on vacation and are generously letting us use their pool. It is a pretty sweet spot!

Well, we were standing in the pool talking when Daryl gently started moving me to a different spot. Then he said β€œa frog just bumped into my leg”. Guess he knew what my reaction would have been if that had been my leg! Daryl rescued it.

Probably not as big as it looked.

And then there are the fun things we don’t get to do at home. How often can you get your machete out in the back yard and hack open a coconut? This young coconut has a ton of yummy water.

It has been a very quiet couple of weeks. Certainly not going to say it has been boring!

Cheers

Ruth
