Hi,  These pictures are from Panama City.  We had a nice tour of the old city with a cab driver named Ronnie.  He is a native Panamanian so he was knowledgeable and Dick had a chance to practice his Spanish.  We stopped in this Havana Bar for a cold drink in the middle of the day.  The picture above is of our ship the MS Amsterdam.  It's capacity is 1300 people, 800 of the passengers are going all the way around the world and end up in Seattle at the end of April.  We are only going half way, ending up in South Africa.  We are at sea today on our way to Ecuador which is literally on the equator.  Some of the passengers are going to the Galapagos but not us.  It is a three day trip and Dick has already been there.  More later.

Love to all, Gwen

and a special Hi to Jerry
