Our time in Panamá was filled with many interesting experiences. When we looked at our pictures we discovered that there were lots of very unique sights and experiences that we want to share with you here.
… so welcome to the Things I Never Thought I´d See Colleen and Sarah Photo extravaGANZA!!
At the Prayer Day we found out that they needed balloon animals made… over 100 balloon animals.
As we have no formal clown training and are somewhat timid around balloons and clowns, we were amazed to find that we actually have the balloon animal annointing (right Gary B?).
Many many many balloon dogs later… all of the children were happy customers.
In other unused skill sets… Sarah was signed up for ¨modeling class¨ at the Campamiento… and was quickly awarded a tiara.

Sorry AIM… we tried to stop him. But Danny became a RACATACA (local lingo for a Panamanian woman who gets in many fights)

First, we found a spot where we could leave our bags while we finished our shopping. Then, came the surprise… instead of a ticket…. or a tag… we recieved a numbered shopping basket to reclaim our packages when we returned.
At 3am one night of traveling… our bus was stopped at a drug check point. First, drug officers boarded the bus yelling a very latino name. Next, we had to exit the bus with all of gear. Then, they let loose the drug dogs… not german shepards… the ever feared COCKER SPANIEL!! The fearsome beast was relentless… he didn´t even pause at the muffins sitting on Sarah´s pillow… as Danny said ¨Scruff McGee! Take a bite out of crime!¨
… that´s all for now… see you at our next photo extravaGANZA!!!
