Los Diablos Rojo are the local buses in Panama City. They run all over the city and are known for their colorful graphic street art painted on the buses. The fronts display the name of the route and the destinations. They so much ornamentation that is a wonder how the driver can see where he is going. They often have a personality on the rear door painted there as well. I have posted some photos taken while out on the street today. The driverīs got a big kick out of my photographic attention. They loved to show the rigs off. I put up a shot or two of our favorite resturant Manoloīs in the Villa Espana district. 

Barb and I pretty much layed in today resting up, as we fly out in the morning. We will hit the ground running when we land in Managua, Nicaragua, mid day tomorrow. We understand that they are having elections there and there are some demonstrations in the capital. So, we will take a cab to a neighborhood said to have express buses to the colonial city of Leon. We have made reservations with a hotel there called Lazybones Hotel. They are expecting us. Letīs see if we can make the flight, catch the cab, to catch the bus, and make it to Leon tomorrow. Hasta Luego! Tomasī
