Pedasí

We arrived in Panama City yesterday. Got our Covid test at the Airport and passed with flying colors. Our taxi was waiting for us and off we went. Panama City from all appearances is a city of the haves and the have-nots. Beautiful skyscrapers with a shantytown next door. And Starbucks is not cheap here.
Today we drove for hours to get to a small town on the coast called Pedasí. Reading about driving here, we were aware that there are lots of speed traps. Damn it if I didn’t get a ticket. Anger! 🤬
We did drive over the famed Panama Canal, pretty impressive. Will have to do a tour when we get back to the city.
About a hour out of the city, we went shopping for 4 days’ worth of food and drinks. I, per the Covide restrictions, was the only person allowed to shop today. Men and women alternate shopping days. What a shit show!
We are at our Airbnb place now. Quite nice and on a 100 hectare farm with private beach access. I don’t think lockdown will be so bad. Merry Christmas to all. Czytaj więcej
