Dias Tranquillas

Buena! I've finally had a breather and a chance to collect my thoughts properly. For some reason the past two days have felt hotter than my first few days en Panama. Luckily they've been incredibly laid back, which has given my body and mind some time to recharge!

Yesterday I enjoyed a lovely nap en una hammica (context clues people) and then tried some "different" food. I use the word different for lack of a better and more descriptive word. Because it wasn't bad I just couldnt wrap my head around the combination. I think its safe to assume we've all grown up on "Pasgetti" si? ya no? Pienso que si. Regardless, its obvious that "Pasgetti" is universally loved as the comfort food for a lifetime. Whether you like your bow tie pasta or your angel hair, there is something out there for everyone. This "Pasgetti" however was one for the books. Call me picky, but it was mixed with tuna. It could be the fact that Im not exactly a tuna lover, unless its smothered with mayonnaise and other condiments that will help me forget Im eating one fishy sea creature. I mean it's fishy,and warm!

Anyways, a giant slice of Sandia later and I was recovering from this unique experience. Thank goodness I had one authentic Tamale the size of my head for dinner. Or else who knows what would have happened.

Today however, was my official day off. I decided to head to Panama City to visit some family friends. And Im so happy I did.
Panama City
They have this little moosh baby boy who basically stole my heart! Watch out gentlemen! You've got some major competition. He is half Persian, a quarter Panamanian, and a quarter Chinese. He speaks un poquito Ingles, a whole mouthful of Spanish, Farsi, and for the win...FRENCH! Ayyyy que lindo! He is absolutely the most adorable thing ever. I spend the day layin out by the pool, playing con los HOTWHEELS con esto chiquito, and napping to my favorite slow jams.
Jingle Bells anyone?

I should mention about an hour after I came in from the pool, the rain hit. And when they say it's the rain forest they mean it! It poured and then stopped, and there was basically no oxygen left to breathe!
After a lovely relaxing day, I enjoyed some helado brought to you by Panama's biggest mall. And when they say es mas grande they really mean it! Felt alot like home...You can see why...
McDonalds, Dairy Queen, KFC, Pizza Hut, Wendys, Burger King: la casa de el Whopper! Popeyes' Louisiana Chicken, Cinnabon, and pretty much anything else you could imagine. Including the worlds largest selection of Helado y Frozen Yogurt!
