On Saturday evening, we flew from Bocas to Panama City, a trip which takes less than an hour by plane. The arial views of the Bocas del Toro islands were great...
After we checked into our highrise (but cheap) hotel, we went out to look for a place to eat, and ended up at of the city's big malls...I guess it will help make the US less of a shock, but it was startling to be in mall culture again! The day before, we had been in a small village that has a single phone, and then a little more than 24 hours later, we are in a mall with glass elevators and stores full of unecessary things..
On Sunday, we walked along the waterfront, and then took a taxi the old part of the city. It is full of beautiful colonial buildings and has a museum dedicated to the Canal, which is excellent! In the next few days, we will visit the Canal.
