PANAMA CITY


Our wonderful two week stay at Buz and Cheri's house came to an end, and Nick, Izzy, Zany and I headed to Panama City for a few nights before catching our flights back to the states. Our friend Stuart was nice enough to put us up and show us around, and it was quite a change of pace compared to the quiet countryside where we had just spent the last couple of weeks. Panama City's modern skyline is growing at an alarming rate, with construction cranes everywhere, and high rises popping up all a long the water. We spent the evening in Casco Viejo, the city's historic Spanish colonial district, where old dilapidated buildings are being fixed up and turned into trendy restaurants and art galleries. It was quite charming, and I wish I'd had more time to explore. But I had to head home. And now I'm back in San Francisco, trying to look for a job and figure out my life. I wish I could do this kind of stuff for a living... but doesn't everyone!
