Journey home


It was a longish journey home that involved a water taxi to Bocas, a B&B in Bocas, a flight to Panama City, a night in a hotel overlooking the Panama Canal, a long flight to Amsterdam with a 4 hour wait there for a connecting flight to Manchester. We had booked a hire car to get us home from Manchester and we were pleased that this was upgraded to an EV at no additional cost and with no need to fill the tank before delivering it to the Shrewsbury depot on Wednesday morning. It's good to be home despite the incessant rain!

Sally is a great admirer of Ferdinand de Lesseps whose statue is in Panama's Old City. He was one of the early proponents of the Panama Canal
