Day 197 - 203 (September 30 - October 6) Panama...

Day 197 - 203 (September 30 - October 6) Panama...
So I caught the quick flight back to Panama. For some reason I got pulled to have my bags searched and have a body scan... maybe it was the 2 1/5 week old beard... or just being a gringo. The technician give me a funny look and then I realized he was trying to figure out what was in my neck and face... Guess I should have told him about the titanium from the old injuries. Oh well, it was a funny look on his face. Cartagena is amazing from the sky. Probably the best way to see it, shame it was on my way out of town.

I got to Panama and spent about the next two days asleep. What can I say, too many times up all night watching the sunrise in Colombia. I caught some football at the local Hooters, yeah thats right Hooters, with some of the cousins. I spent the next couple of days getting my things together and sorting out a few things.

You see an opportunity came up for work back in Europe and I managed to get an interview... in Zurich. The problem is my suits and clothes of any good condition are in London. So I had to go out and get a suit and other things here. Unfortunately that means I am leaving Panama a bit earlier than planned but since I came here sooner than I thought I had done most of the things I wanted. The last place I wanted to see was the islands of San Blas. So I booked a trip out there.
