here comes panama ...

aside from being home of one of the greatest engineering achievements in the world, panama is a city where the cost of a beer (0.36US) is less than an hour of internet (0.65US), and a taxi ride will set you back around a dollar.

having been here only a day, there isn´t much to report yet. took a short trip out to the miraflores lock today - now know all there is to know about a lock and how it operates and then took in some of the city´s finer highlights ....

more to come soon no doubt, but this city already shows signs of greatness and somehwere that everyone should visit (isn´t that what i always say!)

what was that you said .. miami ... yes ... enough said ...

other than merkins - they have no idea how to drive - speed lmits being a suggestion rather than a rule. and it´s no wonder they all need guns - with hardly a pub to be found they need something to amuse themselves of a night ... hope there aren´t any merkins reading htis - don´t tell them where i am!!!
