Chickens, church and bird poop

Jeff and I took advantage of the day off yesterday to go to Taboga Island.

It’s a small island only a 30 minute boat ride from Panama City

There is a beach but it was rainy so we saw it but didn’t hang out there. Instead we walked around town and I took a lot of photos of doors. There were a ton of chickens as well which I also took photos of.

Jeff tried to interview these chickens on why they were crossing the road.

Lunch was a pork chop and fried plantains. In an effort to have something American for the 4th of July, we had light beer.

After lunch we went to the church of San Pedro which is the second oldest church in the America Pacific or possibly the western hemisphere, or continent. Google has varying accounts of what exactly its the 2nd oldest of. Just know it was old.

On the boat ride back we watched these birds. They flew right in front of the boat and seemed to be surfing on the wind.

As we watched we saw something leave the birds butt. Before we could register what it was we were splattered with bird poo.

Didn’t catch a photo of that.

Luckily we had kleenex with us and were in our way back home. Once home we washed our clothes…twice and took very long showers.

I hope everyone has a good 4th of July. The sad news about the parade shooting made the news out here. We were relieved to know our friends there were all safe.
