Panama Animals

 I don't know if I'll really keep this blog going.  It will depend on the photos, since there are limits to what I can write about.  First, I'll say that we have noticed some subtle differences between Panama and Afghanistan.  It's a bit greener here, I think.  Second, from our house, we're seeing some strange animals, though we usually aren't carrying a camera.  If you look carefully in the first one, you'll see an iguana.  Our street is called Paseo de la Iguana, and there are at least two gigantic ones and three mid-sized ones in our back yard.  In the second photo is a monkey; we counted seven or so.  There's also a pack of coati, two of which we've seen, but we haven't taken any pictures.  Eventually we'll get to the canal, which is about three blocks from our house, and take some photos there.  Anyway, this will have to do for starters.

The End

I don't see the need to keep this blog, at least with this focus.  We've been out of Afghanistan for three weeks now, and we can go most days without thinking about it.  We are almost finished with our time in DC, and soon after that, we go to a new continent and a new country.  We still won't comment on political issues related to Afghanistan or anything else.  So I believe it's time to wrap this one up.
