January 3-9: We spent the last few days at Balboa Yacht Club getting our
boat ready for the transit and shopping at Super Kosher, Rey, and Abastos,
the big produce market. One night Jim and Leslee treated us to a superb
dinner at Ten, an upscale restaurant downtown, to celebrate my upcoming
birthday. It was undoubtedly the best meal we've had at a restaurant in
Panamá.
Thom and Allen, our friends and fellow boaters from Orinda and Alameda,
respectively, arrived on January 8 to line handle for the transit. On the
9th we went out for a bit of last-minute provisioning. We found everything
we wanted except the beer that our guests enjoy. Because it was a national
holiday, Martyrs' Day, no alcoholic beverages could be sold anywhere in the
Republic de Panamá.
