Explore 43 New Places in My City

It is the little park downtown, where they had a beautiful mural painted on the wall facing the park. It is a very nice place to eat lunch on a sunny day.

It is really nice to have a little place down town to just relax and watch the cars go by.

I’ll do this on december.

It was amazing to watch this building being built. The site used to house bunch of abandoned stores fronts, which at one time housed Woolworths and other local stores.

The inside is beautiful and I love to walk around just to check out the archetecture. It is a work of art.

I am in this building a lot since I have to do my errands and filed documents with the Family Court.

What is funny is that the Palace theater is just the next building down from the Marion County Building. ha ha ha

It is a beautiful place to go and explore. It has so much history and I love just looking at all the artwork that is all around me when I am walking to my seat.

The bathrooms are so different. They are almost like lounge rooms, which a soft couch, beautiful fixtures. I almost feel like a movie star when I walk in one.

It is especially nice at night when it is all lit up while I walk up to buy my ticket.

:o)

I barely have time these days to go to my favourite book store or nature trails. I’ll have to do this when I’m retired. BooHoo.

1. Panama viejo ruins
Ruins of the old city of Panama “La Vieja” (The old one) sacked and burn by the Pirate Morgan.
2. Casco Viejo done
The city moved here after Morgan’s attack, originally it was surrounded by a big wall but that wall was stripped down in the past century only small parts remains.
3. Metropolitan Park done
A forest very close to the city, sadly the urban planners decided to put a main road trough it slicing it in two sections causing the death of a lot of animals that try to cross the road in order to go to the river at the other side of it.
4. Causeway done
A road built between 3 islands off the coast of Panama city by the americans when building the canal, now it’s a leissure place to be close to the sea and have a great view of the city skyline, it’s full of restaurants and trendy bars, people goes with their family or alone to cycling, fishing or just walking the 4 mile long stretch of road.
5. Diablo Rojo Ride done
A Diablo Rojo is Panama’s principal public transportation, painted in vivid colours and usually alegoric paints, loud music and total disregard for the passengers or bystanders safety, they are being slowly moved out of use by newer more modern buses.

A big Mall across the street of Panama city main transportation hub.

Panama city’s first “Mall” still have a thriving community of asian shops and specialty stores.
10. Miraflores Locks done
The first locks into the Panama canal. A museum is open to visitors.

The bridge that unite both sides of the Canal, the name beffits it very well.

14. Bahai Temple done
A beautiful retreat atop a hill in Panama city outskirts, a big iluminated dome visible from anywhere in the city.

Well I live in a small town in South Dakota so not exactly sure there are 43 places to visit… I have only been here for 3 months though so maybe theres a few things I havent experiences… we will see..

I’ve been to 1. The Manx Pub a few times, and I’m going to the 2. Mayflower Restaurant for brunch (heard it’s good) and for drinks Monday night. 3. Stone Face Dollies for brunch was new. Hope to add some places that aren’t food related.

I completely failed in this goal.

Everytime I go home I can think of a million places I want to go, things I wanna do/see, people to meet up with.

Then I get there, and I find myself not answering the phone, not checking my email. (sigh)

my friends know I do this, and that I’m tired, so they cut me some slack, but I really DO want to see them. There’s just never enough time for everything/everyone.

So, I guess I’ll try to do this a bit in NY, even if it isn’t my city (and I regard it with the disdain one regards an unwanted mangey crazy person that follows them home)

Paul told me of a cool art exhibit in Brooklyn—I’m planning on heading out to see it tomorrow…should be fun.

if this means “San Fran” or NY?

NY would be easy, because everything is new.
But San Fran would be more funner :D
