Well, years in the making, this trip is proving to be worth the wait. For those who don't remember, we were originally supposed to go to Panama for our sabbatical two years ago, but due to changes in the Visa laws right before we left, we had to cancel the trip.
We are frantically planning a day trip to the Caribbean side of Panama for tomorrow, so this will be a short entry. Paden is a great travel companion. Once we came to the conclusion (and it didn't take long) that the pace would be a little slower and not as much could be accomplished in one day as it used to be, all was well. Forrest and I offer a certain respect to Paden and his needs for basic things like naps, Pina Coladas, and touching every imaginable dirty thing in Central America (which is not as modern and civilized as the internet may lead you to believe). For all my friends who think it is so great that Paden sucks his thumb and is so easily soothed by it, think again. I can't begin to imagine what he has ingested.....
So here it is, mostly pictures of our pride and joy, but a couple of his entourage for your enjoyment. We just left Kristin and Nome yesterday as we headed West to Boquete and they headed East for Panama City. I couldn't dream up better travel companions and we had a blast for the week we were together. Thanks for making the trek....yet again!
