PANAMA OCT 2010

---

Hola,
Greetings from Panama. We left Pedasi on Wednesday and travelled to El Valle. El Valle mean "the Valley" and it is beautifully lush. It rains all the time, so everything grows like wild there. The gardens of the cottage where we staryed the night were amazing.

On Thursday we left El Valle Thursday mid-day and travelled only about 50 miles to the beach of Santa Clara. We found a great little place right on the beach for only $121 for all four of us. It had some beautiful grounds and a wide stretch of beach all to ourselves.

We are back in Panama City now at our little hotel on Ancon Hill. It's in the former US occupation zone bordering the canal. Tomorrow we will take a tour of the canal and we're all looking forward to that. Then Sunday we head for home.

We will try to send one more entry tomorrow night with pictures of the canal tour.
Thanks for following our adventures.

Good night from Panama,
David and Malialani (Craig and Elisa)
