Third Stop, Panama City



The beautiful Biodiversity Museum, designed by (duh) Frank Gehry.








Not all structures around Panama City are so nice.


Colorful, but a tad run-down.



This is Mola, an art form stitched by the indigenous peoples of Panama.


Casco Antiguo was the original Panama City, sacked by pirate Captain Morgan in 1673.

The modern Panama City skyline from the original



“I have in my hand a device capable of accessing the sum total of human knowledge; I use it mainly for arguing with strangers and looking at pictures of cats.”




As we're sailing away from Panama City a storm followed us out to sea.  The high-rise skyline is visible behind the line of rainclouds.
