Into Panama now



Finally greetings from Panama,
What an ordeal of scams and schemes to get out of Costa Rica and into Panama but here we are tonight in a town called David.
We left the Osa today and headed to a real quaint town of Golfito to meet with an Ex Pat selling properties there - it is on the gulf of Dulce and has a very different but very nice laid back atmosphere.
As usual the rain was on and off all day and "Elsie" was enjoying getting passed 2nd gear after we did some final welding on the roof carrier which now seems very secure now.
After getting into Panama, we tried to make as much distance as we could as we have about 200 km to do tomorrow to meet up with our next appointment.
As we were entering the town of David, the rain was pouring and the wipers decided to die on us, so it was back to another workshop but the bottom line is that we will have to try and replace two of the components tomorrow before heading out in the morning.
We
have two properties to visit with the client on both north and the south coast so we will not know until we meet up how long this visit/appointment will take until we meet up tomorrow.
We do know we will most likely be on the island of Cebaco in the gulf of Montija at some time tomorrow.
We will update you all again soon
Take care
Paul and Angelika

PS Costa Rica is a very expensive country to visit, Panama is way better even the Diesel is cheaper
