Erica comes to visit for three weeks

Erica dropped her busy schedule to come visit us for a whirlwind visit of Panama City and the surrounding area. Her intent was to relax and enjoy the beaches in the Perles Islands, but we managed to fit in travel to lovely El Valle for a couple days as well as concentrated shopping at the lovely Multi Plaza Mall and our ladrone (thieves) infested Cinco de Mayo walking mall. Then on to lovely, quaint Casco Antigua where there are old and restored victorian buildings, museums, stores homes and restaurants all nestled together on the waterfront. We managed to celebrate Erica's birthday over a three day period, topping it off with a coconut spice cake. Towards the end of her stay, we were joined by Sammer Elias who stopped by to see us after an extended surf trip in Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. Pictures to follow once we get our computer back from the shop!! This typing is being done on our itty bitty Asus surfing 2g computer with a very small keyboard.
