PANAMA

I have so much to tell, but not enough time to tell it. Panama was incredible! Traveling outside of the country is a great learning experience and super fun. We were very lucky to avoid a "tourist" experience because of our gracious hosts. So, here is just a small taste of a great vacation- Happy 12 year anniversary to us! (I went to Ogden on my honeymoon- so don't feel too jealous).
Spanish ruins- panama is a relatively young country, but they do have some remains from long ago.

Like I mentioned, we really got to experience what the locals do in Panama. Including whole fried fish, squid, octopus. It was all great. I can honestly say the only thing I didn't like was the coconut water. Daren enjoyed the food too!

A closer look at my lunch. It really was delicious!

In a jeep on our way to the rain forest. Daren, me, Lily, and Remy. Lily and Remy were our hosts and they were so gracious and fun.

Daren is ready to "canopy" through the rain forest (I think it's what Americans call zip lining).

On the beach. There were very few people there. We had a great time running on the beach.

At the zoo. There zoos are just a tad more scenic than ours!

A photo showing what most of Panama looks like. Green, green, green.

At the Mira Flores Locks- Panama Canal. The Canal is an awesome sight! We also went to the Panama temple which was equally as awesome. Next time we will take the girls and anybody else that wants to come along.
