Last Day in Panama

Friday 25 October 2013
Last day in Panama.  Went for a private boat trip on Lake Gatun.  So beautiful.  The boat driver took us to see the monkeys.  Saw Capucians and little tamarinds who happily ate the fruit we brought them.  Little darlings.




Then on the way back to Panama City, went to a local zoo in the rainforest as I was determined to see a sloth.  They had a picture of a sloth, but not actually a sloth.  Disappointing.  But saw other excellent animals.  Toucans, spider monkeys, ocelots, tapirs, anteater, macaws, harpie eagle, jaguar.

Staying at the Waldorf Astoria in the heart of the city.  OMG!  Service like we never experienced before.  Had to go to the Copa office to sort out our tickets for tomorrow, they gave us a driver to take us.  We asked him how we should get back.  He said “no, you wont find it, I’ll wait for you.”  Then they booked us dinner reservations and were generally excellent.  Room was beautiful.  Went for a swim in the heated pool.  Yay!
