Colon, Panama

We spent Tuesday, May 3 in Colon, Panama.  Here is the view coming into the city.

After breakfast we went over to the area near the cruise ship. It was a colorful area with shops.  We were warned not to go outside the wall as it was dangerous there.  There was a lot of police presence obvious within this area.

 

Here is our ship looking back from the shopping area.

There was a beautiful mosaic welcoming us to Panama.

 

Syrena and Bette are looking in the shop while, me, Gene, and Jim are listening to a spiel from one of the many people trying to get us to take a tour.

We looked in all of the shops and bought a few things.

It was very hot outside so we took an early cervaza break before heading back to the ship for lunch.

We went back to the ship for lunch and then we took a nap before dinner.  After dinner we went to the show and saw “Journey” by Duo Velikovi.  They are an acrobatic adage couple that are very good.  After the show it was to bed as tomorrow we go through the Panama Canal very early in the morning.
