Panama Paradise - Day 6

One of the highlights of any trip we* take is going to church in the area we are visiting. There was meetinghouse nearby and we attended the Cardenas Ward in Panama City. This is the church building from the side. The next photo shows two missionaries who are serving in Panama. The family of the tallest one is moving to Pleasant Grove in the near future.

This man is Todd Kirby's father and the boy is his brother.

Returning to our hotel after church.

This building serves as an apartment for the temple president, a hotel for people who come and visit the temple and need a place to stay (at a cost of $5 per night), and a distribution center.

A view of the street approaching the temple. You can see the church in the foreground and the temple in the back ground.

The temple was beautiful, as they all are, and there was a very good spirit as we walked on the grounds.

This was a nice relaxing day and we enjoyed it! We have one more excursion tomorrow as we venture into the rain forest.  Sunday afternoon we took a nature walk saw some beautiful butterflies and flowers on the hotel grounds. We also saw the golf course with the rain forest in the background from our hotel balcony.

We hope these are a prelude to what we will see tomorrow in the Gamboa Rainforest!
