My mother and step-father retired to Panama last year, and recently settled in the town of Puerto Armuelles. Yesterday we visited the town of Cerro Punta near Volcan.
The cooler, dryer weather was just starting in Texas when I left to visit, and I was not particularly looking forward to a return to the humid, hot weather in Puerto Armuelles. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Cerro Punta was much cooler and dryer, however, due to its high elevation (Over 4000ft above sea level). I got some nice pictures as well, which will fill out the rest of this post.
