ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
After leaving our moving two-week home (cruise ship) we headed to our Amsterdam hotel to drop off our bags. Then we headed out to explore the city on a hop-on, hop-off bus, and on foot. The bus is a great way to get oriented and comfortable with the town you are in.
While our visit to Panama was mostly about relaxing, working on the blog, and travel planning for next year, we did find time to visit Lake Gatun and a place called Monkey Island.
One of the highlights of our trip to Panama was visiting the Panama Canal and the Canal Zone. We also learned about the history of one of the world’s greatest achievements. Many years ago, I read a book about the Panama Canal. Ever since then, seeing the canal in person has been on my bucket list.
