This has been a different year for us in Panama with fewer adventures than usual. That might have had something to do with the time consuming process of residency, now that’s a story for another day. Yesterday we went to Cambutal to do a little exploring. Daryl had been there to go on a fishingContinue reading “Time for a road trip”

Don’t mess with Nature
Playa el toro is the closest beach to Pedasi and is well used. The road that went to the beach was in rough shape at the end, and getting worse every year, but still drivable. Over the past year there must have been some very big waves as the road has totally collapsed. At theContinue reading “Don’t mess with Nature”
The quest for a swimming beach
We had been told there is a beach quite close to Playita, out favourite swimming place, that was just about as calm, at Villa Marina. Villa Marina is a lodge and condo development between Playa Playita and Playa Vanao, with a very short drive between them. It is an absolutely stunning location.

But maybe this year it’s time to look a little further afield. So many people have told us about Price Smart, kind of equivalentContinue reading “Price Smart, just like going to Costco”
Aerial yoga in Pedasi: Flying High
For the past few years I have followed a Pedasi Facebook page. Shortly before we left Calgary there was a post for aerial yoga that looked like something I would try. I replied with ‘interested’, then forgot about it until I got an inquiry back. By this time we were already in Pedasi. As itContinue reading “Aerial yoga in Pedasi: Flying High”
Pedasi: Our first little while, November 2022
It is hard to believe it’s almost two weeks since we left Calgary. We arrived in the rain and the first night here felt cold as it was only 24C. I actually wrapped up in a blanket on the couch. It might have also had something to do with fatigue! Since them no more feelingContinue reading “Pedasi: Our first little while, November 2022”
