The Road To Boquete

The Road To Boquete

We left Panamá city for David, and now we are in Boquete, about 1 hour 1/2 from David. The small town is very relax­ing, and less hot than David (gosh, it was hot!). We are basi­cally lost in the moun­tains, with a few ani­mals and a lot of orchards around.

  • Camione­tas! Thanks for shar­ing the pho­tos from Panama. I really don’t have an idea what Panama looks like. I have this image of Cen­tral Amer­i­can jun­gle, lots of trop­i­cal rain­forests and col­or­ful birds, like Costa Rica. Not much lost tem­ples like Guatemala, but I am totally pulling this out from thin air. So, what else is there?

    Whoa!! What a trip Zhu, love that lovely lemon tree and that rain­bow too :D

  • Hi Zhu,

    This looks like a great trip. The place reeks of adven­ture or sur­prise wait­ing to hap­pen any­time. But it has been peace­ful in Panama for some­time, and you have cap­tured the mood of the place and the tex­ture of the locale per­fectly on these pho­tos. The photo of you by the river looks refreshing.

    Are you spend­ing Christ­mas in South Amer­ica? It is quite an expe­ri­ence and a cul­tural expo­sure that I’m cer­tain you’ll enjoy and find memorable.

    The other photo though are not palm trees nor coconuts but banana plants.

    Have an even nicer time as you move along the South of the Amer­i­cas. Take care. :-) –Durano, done!

    Wow Zhu! I didn’t know you were trav­el­ing! Love the pic­tures of Panama–most of what I can do these days is vic­ar­i­ous trav­el­ing! I bet you’re glad to be out of the Cana­dian snow!
