Panama City

Highlights:
- Got our laundry done free at our hostel as they messed up our booking slightly, so saved at least £10!
- We loved being in a big city again, our first since Mexico City
- A successful shopping trip at the mall where we stocked up on clothes and essentials for our boat trip (including alcohol and lots of snacks!)
- Seeing the Panama Canal - we didn't want to pay the ridiculous price for the viewing platform at Miraflores locks, so we went to the locks slightly further down and watched 3 huge boats go through the canal from a car park which was really cool
- Walking around the old town, and then back to our hostel through a park by the ocean
- Drinks on the rooftop bar 66 floors up the Marriott hotel with friends with views of the city - we splashed out and got a bottle of wine and some beers!

Lowlights:
- Being extremely tired from the overnight bus that got us into the city at 4am!
- Wasting an hour and a half of our time at a terrible mall and supermarket, where we bought a grand total of 2 bananas!Les mer
