Panama-Part I


Josh and I went to Panama a couple of weeks ago for our dear friends, Siannah and Mike's wedding. At first Josh and I didn't think we were going to make it since this whole house remodel is literally sucking us bone dry of funds...Josh is working tons of overtime and I am packing my lunch everyday and eating in every night to save us some $$ (Eating out adds up).

But Josh and I discussed it and we felt that it was important to share this very special occasion with our friends. So, we scraped up our money, postponed our further much-needed renovations, and packed our bags and flew to Panama.

We are so happy we went! :) We had a blast !

One of my favorite things we did was to go to The Panama Canal. The Panama Canal tour was so interesting. I am embarrassed to say that I didn't really didn't know too much about the canal. But after going on this tour, and seeing the canal for myself, I understand the importance of it. It was both shocking and extremely impressive on how much work actually went into building the canal. (For those of you who do not know, the canal is so important because it connects the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. So basically,  it allows direct access from one side of the world to the other, significantly reducing the amount of travel a ship needs to do to transport it's cargo
since the ship will not have to go all the way around South America or North America).

(Here's a shipment coming through the canal).

Josh was totally into The Panama Canal too.


We also go to tour the city.


And the beaches.

The food? Absolutely delish...

My favorite? The ceviche...

Parting thoughts? "Unforgettableness."
