Two and a Half Weeks in Panama

Amazing, I have spent 2 and a half weeks in Panama already. Here's a short update of some events.

Firstly, I have officially drove on the 'right' side of the road. Yep, we rented a car, and it seems like I'm the dedicated driver. My boss, we kept wanting to rent a car, didn't have a car license. I only realised that just before we rented the car. And the other colleague, doesn't seem too keen on driving. So far driving in Panama have been mixed. On the expressway, its a breeze. But in the city, its a real killer. But I must say, after 2 days of driving, I think I can cope pretty well driving against the insane cabs and buses.

Next update, work has been pretty slow moving. Slow moving meaning most of the time, I just go to office, and wait. And wait. And wait. Nothing much for me to do. I have to wait at least another week before the other contractor gets their stuff up. In the mean time, I'm just doing my stuff at a relaxed paced.

Lastly, we finally tried cooking something tonight. But it was a disaster. There wasn't many proper crockery and utensils, so we had trouble just to make spaghetti. In the end, my boss dropped the pasta on the floor as the handle of the pan was loose and we had to eat vegetables and very little pasta with grapes. But I must admit, its the most healthy meal we had in Panama, Land of Grilled Meat.

Alrighty, thats all for now. Oh yes, a casino update: Casino US$102 - Thengz US$107.50. Thengz ahead by the tip of his nose.
