Day 2- February 1





Day 2- February 1

Slept in quite a bit today.  Didn’t get moving out of the condo until about noon.  Had left over pizza for breakfast!  It was over an hour to the grocery store and we spent $700!!  It was a fun adverture seeing all the different foods they offer here. 

We then found a local spot for lunch.  Kiefer had a burger, Paul had fish (a bit mushy) and I had chicken (a bit tough).  We will take a bit to get used to where to eat and what to eat. 

We then found a gelato place – DELISH!!!  And Kiefer got a Starbucks tea!  We headed back to the condo and since we had such a late lunch (around 4:00 pm) we just had some cheese and crackers while we watched some shows.  Kiefer had eggs.  (we bought a whole 30 egg flat – and I know that won’t even come CLOSE to lasting us the month!)

We hit the hay around 10 as we are all still a bit jet lagged.  (even with Kiefer napping in the car every chance he gets).

Day 4 – February 3

Day 4 – February 3: Today we slept in again – I made Kiefer eggs this morning.  We don’t have any non stick pans or high smoke point oils so it’s been very difficult to make eggs.  Nearly impossible.  But it was done.  We walked over to the welcome center but it was closed.  So we then walked over to the hotel (opposite ends of the grounds – 1.25 km!)  We visited the sales center briefly and then had lunch at the restaurant on the beach.  It was absolutely stunning.  Right on the beach overlooking the ocean.  The beach has been red flagged every day we have been here because of the high winds.  It feels like we are in Kansas and Dorthy is about to fly by at any minute.  After lunch we went over to the sales center and Hector showed us a three bedroom unit on the ground floor right in front of the pool.  Also with slightly blocked views of the beach.  It was nice – but small and surrounded by large buildings.  On a bus...

Day 18 - February 17

  SLOTH DAY IS HERE! Today was one of those days that makes you stop mid-thought and go, Is this actually my life right now? We woke up early because the drive to the sanctuary is just under two hours, and we were on the road a little after 9 a.m., coffee in hand, full of excitement. About three-quarters of the way there, we realized we’d missed a turn and added an extra 10 minutes to the drive. Oh well — in Panama, time feels a little more flexible anyway. We rolled into the resort around 10:50 and immediately discovered parking was… ambitious. Paul checked us in for the tour while Kiefer and I circled until we finally snagged a spot. We boarded a bus that took us deeper into the sanctuary, officially kicking off the day. The first stop was the frog exhibit. At first, nothing. Just greenery and silence. Then the guide turned on mist sprinklers, and suddenly the tiniest frogs imaginable started appearing. I don’t know what I expected, but these were miniature . We caught a glimpse ...

Day 1: January 31, 2026

  Day 1: January 31 Today was a rough morning.  Waking up at 4 am to make it down to Toronto for our 8:00 am flight.  The airport was MUCH busier than I was expecting at 5:30 am.  We found our way top our baggage drop, got rid of our three big bags and made our way through security with our carry on baggage.  The entire check in process was uneventful and we made our way to the lounge.  Only it was closed.  ☹   So we sat at a table in the ‘restaurant’ area of the waiting area and ordered breakfast.  Almost $100 for a mediocre breakfast was a hard pill to swallow.  We then had to take a shuttle to the terminal our flight was leaving from.  We waited a bit longer and then it was time to board our flight.  We managed to get three seats together (Paul was separate at first but a kind woman offered to trade seats with him).  I had the window seat so didn’t get up the whole flight.  It was a long flight and we were all ve...
