Best Meal Deal
Breakfast and combo meals, for only one dollar. It's now Sunday and we are heading out of the city to begin the rest of our adventure. Leaving Panama City, we wind our way through the market area and try to find our way to Puente de Las Americas...that bridge we could see from a distance while in Amador.
As usual, signage is hard to read and anything on any of our maps is suspect. During a long wait in traffic, right in the middle of the busiest, most crowded and densest open market area of the city, we see a sign for food that Richie just must take a photo of....comida (food or meals) for only a buck! What a deal. However, we must still find our way to the bridge over the Pacific end of the canal so that we can be on our way west and then south, in search of El Valle....a town that sits in the middle of an ancient volcano caldera.
We remarkably make it to the bridge, but again, more by accident than anything else. As we depart, we think about a few of the folks we met during our city stay who made us feel welcome regardless of any language
Waiter at Martin Fierro
This was our waiter at Martin Fierro steakhouse...again, can you beat these welcoming smiles?! He provided some of the best service we had during our entire trip...more American in style and speed than most other places, but still very laid back compared to what most of us Americans are used to and likely expect. barriers. I am posting their photos here instead of going back to the earlier postings.
