This is the view from our hotel room. You can see the Panama Canal cranes in the distance to the right. 

We found this Einstein head while walking around El Cangrejo today. 

Welcome to our blog! We will do our best to keep you updated with our adventures from Panama! It is our third day here and we are enjoying it so far. We spent the first two days at the school with the rest of the new teachers doing orientation things. We also had a tour of the neighborhoods and enjoyed a cocktail party hosted by the school. Today was our first free day. It was great to sleep in and walk around a bit. We walked through the neighborhood of El Cangrejo to check if it would be a good place for us to live. Other teachers live there and there are many restaurants and bars, and also sidewalks, which is a luxury around here. We have an appointment with a real estate agent tomorrow morning to look at places.

We now have all 4 of our bags from the airline. Phew! What a relief!

We will post pictures soon!
