Panama - Random Pics

In the last installment of our 15 day stay in Panama no themes or one-off excursions but some random and odd pics from throughout our trip.

This little fella was part way down the 66 steps to the beach.
It's Hammer time!
Up at dawn, with the birds...
Speaking of birds! These guys roamed the resort each day. The males, of course, are far more exotic than the female peacocks.
Every day these artisans would walk the length of the beach selling their jewelry.
A McD's on the side of the Pan Americana highway.
A restaurant doorway in the older section of Panama City.
A past-its-prime locamotive which was once used to guide ships through the Milaflores Locks of the Panama Canal.

Shopping in Panermo we found the Latinos Store...but it's only cash or credit card.

The Police Station at the Royal Decameron Resort. They don't need squad cars!

An artisans' store on the side of the Pan Americana

This boat has seen better days...

Kids play at the Embaras Indigenous settlement.

Ex-pat Canadian Woody and his wife Monique run a beach bar where I felt right at home drinking Corona and eating poutine and wings!

Ahhh...the sunrise on our final morning.

If smoking kills, a 5-carton special at the duty free must leave no doubt whatsoever!

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy!  You know what happens on Imagination D
