Day 26 - "Epic" New Zealand Adventure 2022

Connie and Joyce Going Māori

We hadn't made any definite plans on what to do in Tahiti. Originally, we tried to get a daytrip to visit the nearby island of Moorea, but that didn't pan out.

A Week in Panama

Play Bonita Dreams Resort, Panama

I don't know why it took me so long to write this up, but Connie and I spent a week in Panama last December. Panama is a country on the isthmus linking Central and South America. The Panama Canal, a famous feat of human engineering, cuts through its center, linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans to create an essential shipping route. We flew into Panama City and stayed at an "all-inclusive" ...
