PEDASI, PANAMA

Pedasi is a small town in Los Santos province, Panama. When you look online you can find numbers that say the population of Pedasi ranges anywhere from 2500 – 4000. Whatever its actual size it has a lot to offer when you want to get away from a cold Canadian winter. In distance, it isContinue reading “PEDASI, PANAMA”

Loving Everything Beach

It’s hard to believe we have been in Pedasi for two months already!! When we left home we knew it would be a quiet winter with less “out and about”, and it has been. I am thankful that we are able to be away from the cold, snow and ice. From the beginning our mainContinue reading “Loving Everything Beach”

Monchique, Portugal 2020

Another little town not far from where we are staying in Monchique. It is in the mountains, with a totally different look and feel. The town itself is rather charming. One of the main attractions is a 17th century monastery about a 15 minute walk from town. We did not do it as our dayContinue reading “Monchique, Portugal 2020”

It is a small rustic town and the road ends at the ocean. We stayed at Mama Ines hotel. The rooms were small but clean.Continue reading “Santa Catalina”

Before we left Calgary at the end of October 2018 I decided to keep a record or our trip…and started a blog. My attemptsContinue reading “Hi, my name is Ruth”

Year 2, First to Panama City

Hard to believe this is the 6th day since we left Calgary to come to Panama. On October 29 Heather and Mike (just love the warm house coat) gave us a ride to the airport at 3:30 AM. So early in the year to be so cold, -14C.Continue reading “Year 2, First to Panama City”
