Our short stay in Panama City is about to end. The
Galapagos Islands are going to be difficult to get to though as there has been
no wind for 7 weeks. We intend to stop at Las Perlas Islands, about 35 miles
south, for a day or two.
Panama City is very modern with a skyscraper
skyline and glitters at night.
Thats us in the middle
 On a branch of the peninsular we are anchored off
is a Smithsonian Institute research facility, which we walked round and we
finally saw a 2-toed sloth. They are obviously a bit quick for us - they sleep
for 20 hours a day and hide in the leaves the rest of the time!
Ball of fluff
 Ah, there he is!
 Strangers to us, but ordinary to the North
Americans visiting were a couple of raccoons.
 About to go ahsore for a cocktail, so keeping this
short. We might be able to get wi-fi in Galapagos, so we hope to have some more
wildlife shots then.
