From the village to the beach

Panama has got some beaches, white sand, black sand, and salt and pepper sand. All beautiful. This is our last beach stay until we head back home. We´re staying at the Playa Blanca Resort, allegedly one of Panama´s best. Judgement will be reserved until we leave, however the all inclusive drinks are pretty good.

We almost drove right by the turn off for this resort. When we left Pedasi we put the resort name in the gps and received our directions. Off we went, in the right direction, but the gps had us going about sixty miles past the resort to another beach area. By chance we had stopped along the way and checked a map, measure twice...cut once, the gps didn´t seem to be properly reading the route. After we got back on the road and had been going for about thirty minutes we saw a sign "Playa Blanco Resort" to the right. We pulled over, checked the map, made a phone call, turned off the gps and drove into the resort. If we had stayed with the gps we would have been at least an hour away from where we should have been. You just don´t want to image how upset I would have been. Kryss would have made me walk to cool down in the 90 degree heat!

Since we were unable to upload any photos yesterday, some from Pedasi are included in this entry.
