Panama - Day 2

After a comfortable, air-conditioned night's sleep we drove around the city for a while before heading out to our homebase in Coronado - about 1.5 hours west of Panama City.

I was surprised by the incredible amount of high-rise development in the city, but it turns out that many of the skyscraping condos were unfinished or empty - apparently the U.S. economic downturn has had a significant effect on the willingness of Americans to invest down here.

A quick pic of the Panama Canal as we crossed over La Puenta de Los Americas was all I saw of it. We have plans to go see it up close in a few days.
