Nice Find

If you are ever spending the day at the beach in Coronado you have to stop in for food and beverage at Cholo's.
Great Mexican food and great atomospher including the bongo drums.
The ice cream is not bad either.

Another Find in Coronado...A Great Beach

I am on a never ending quest to find the perfect beach. This weekend we found a good one in Coronado. If you have lived in Central America as long as I have its hard to find a beach that is clean and safe enough to swim. Coronado's beach is a find.

Life in the Foreign Service means you have to get used to saying goodbye.

We wish you guys well and we'll see you in some other corner of the world.

Gooooooooooooooal....

Panama vs Mexico
Im not a big soccer fan but you cant argue that soccer fans get into the game.

My only complaint is that the game ended in a tie...they should have a shoot out at the end to determine a winner...ties are very unsatisfying .

My new favorite place...Pedasi

Carnival Graveyard

Pedasí is a town situated on the south-eastern tip of the Azuero Peninsula on Panama’s Pacific coast. It is located in the Pedasí District, in the Los Santos province. It is principally a fishing village with a population of about 2000 people.

Pedasí is known for lively annual carnivals, pristine beaches, and activities such as sport fishing, diving and surfing, as well as its proximity to several of Panama’s national parks and preserves.

Pedasí town consists mainly of a central road (Avenida Central), a plaza (city center) about two blocks away, and several nicely maintained civic buildings, surrounded by quiet, residential blocks.^[

With its quaint architecture and neatly laid-out streets, Pedasí is one of the main attractions of the Los Santos region.
