  1. I want to apologise to anyone who travelled to David for the cabalgata that did not happen! In announcing the event I checked with several sources and tried--and failed--to avoid the bias of hopeful expectations. Edward Satterblom
  2. The annual cabalgata celebrates the patron saint day of David. It has thousands of brightly ornamented horses and riders, and is the best public event of the year in Chiriqui. The parade starts at the Parque le las Madres, down the street from Super Baru.
  3. Shortly after my original post (3pm), I received word from a reliable source that he had just driven from David to Boquete with no problem. The utility bill suggestion is excellent.
  4. I have heard of a roadblock in Dolega which is enforcing the quarantine and preventing travel between Boquete and David. Has anyone actually experienced this or have first-hand knowledge?
  5. My car's temp gauge tracked at 35 centigrade, which is what the weather services reported. Plenty hot enough!
  6. Yes--Transmisiones Panama on the Panamericana just past the stoplight for Calle F Sur (Dairy queen, McDonalds, etc.). Phone 774-1039 or Guillermo's cell at 6747-9457; he speaks English.
  7. The 24th is a Monday. "Mardi Gras" (Fat Tuesday) is on the 25th.
  8. This is a basic Intuos Wacom tablet/pen. For working with Photoshop and Lightroom and other apps. New in the box; used 1-2 hours. My hands shake too badly so I must use a mouse. Originally $50 from B&H, Yours for $25. Contact Edward at lanecito@gmail.com.
  9. Does anyone know if the starting point of the cabalgata will remain the same this year (that is, on Calle F Sur--McDonald's street)? The gathering/starting point is a good to take photos.
  10. Imagine their surprise when the folks from Santiago arrive in David and look for the on-ramp to the new Boquete highway! Or perhaps not....
  11. Another source of information about the invasion is the documentary "The Panama Deception."
