Yesterday was liberation day. We took the bus into Panama City and made our way to the Kia dealer. We only had to wait a few minutes and we were readdy to go. First stop was the gas station to get $20 worth of diesel at $3.65 a gallon. Then the fun started. Panama City is a maze posing as a city, and they further complicate things by having closed intersections every few blocks. They're digging for a subway system and that, in combination with some new overpasses and elevated roadways, means that there is construction going on everywhere. I might add that they don't believe in street signs here, so getting out of town was quite an adventure. But we made it without too much trouble and the ride home was uneventful. Now my new steed is grazing quietly in the front drive, waiting patiently for our next challenge. This week we'll be going to David to visit with my lawyer's family and to get my Panamanian driver's license...maybe a trip to the beach in there too...but for now, so long from Mike and Sandy's Excellent Adventures in Panama.
