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!
