We recently visited Adam's family in Panama. We planned our trip to attend Nick's homecoming; he recently returned home from a mission to Denmark. It was so much fun to see them and to visit where we got married last year.
The Panama City skyline is so beautiful. I could take pictures of it all day. I limited myself to sharing the following two one from Costco Antiguo and one from Cerro Ancon:
We enjoyed sharing our visit to Panama with some of our friends. We had great fish tacos at the fish market. Apparently that's the restaurant's name and it's not the actual fish market that we searched first.
We took a trip to San Blas. I hadn't been there since I was a missionary. So much had changed in those 4 years. Many of the houses have satellites and there are so many more boats that will take you to the islands and those boats all have life jackets.
The elephant-looking object in the water is a sunken ship. We enjoyed snorkeling around the ship.
The whole boat of crabs was for sale for $30.
Portobelo was the main port where Spain shipped the majority of the gold they 'recovered' from the new world. Today it's a small town with a beautiful bay that goes out into the Caribbean sea. There are the ruins of several of the forts used to defend against pirates and an old church.

Adam's parents had told us that visiting the Embera village was their favorite thing. We loved the boat ride to the waterfall and village. It was our favorite as well.
