Panama City, Panama - Things to see

[@SpyderWayne]

Wonderful tribute for your Dad, bringing his memory, and watch !!! Panama looks beautiful and hot... I think someone was beginning to look like a lobster 🦞🥵😅

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks Wayne !!! Haha, ya it was hot … I was power tanning on the last couple days, as South America was a lot cooler and we for saw that coming. LOL. Panama was beautiful though. Glad we went there. Cheers

Very touching thing to do for your dad. I’m sure he enjoyed it thoroughly 👍🏻👊🏼

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks for the comment. Ya meant a lot to me to get him to his bucket list place. I’m sure he enjoyed it. One odd thing that gave me that feeling… the watch is a very old, manual winding watch. No batteries back then. Watch has been in a draw for almost 3 years. Watch hasn’t run for years … I didn’t wind it at all …. and when we were on the bus after the tour, I looked at the watch to put it away and it was running, the seconds arm was moving. Gave me chills. Thanks for you comment bud. Cheers

[@BigBert]

Very cool video thanks for taking us along. A beautiful thing to do for your Dad 😎

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thank you for the comment BB. Really appreciate it ! Cheers

[@davidbradley6356]

Great video. It was very special that you honored your father by wearing his watch and touring the panama canal. I am certain he is pleased. My wife and I are looking to tour Panama in the not so distant future. Thank you for sharing.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thank you for watching !!! As for the Panamá canal tour, we loved it. It was a special day for me, a life long bucket list tour. It was cool to go from one ocean to the other in 10 hours, that being said with all the bus transfers it was a LONG day. Almost 14 hours in total You can do a half day tour that stops in the middle then back to Panamá City. We loved the country of Panamá and want to go back. Thanks again ! Cheers

Let me tell you about your video is well done I like it keep up the good work cheers. O another note your Dad is happy in heaven..

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thank you for the kind words in your comment. We loved Panama and hope to come back, and Yes our plan is to learn more Spanish before we do come back. We believe it is a sign of respect to try and communicate in the local language Cheers.

[@juanluiscarbonepicard-ami5379]

Glad you enjoyed 🇵🇦, albrook mall is the largest mall not only in Panama but in the Caribbean, central and South America. Hope y’all come back ❤🇵🇦 Not an esplanade btw, we call it the Causeway, Amador Causeway

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks for your comment, and correction of our memory !!! We saw so many things in a week and just couldn’t remember the name of the Causeway. Thanks ! Cheers

[@LivingtheSilverLife]

What a fun adventure. Loved the beaches, the chocolate shop, the info on the Panama Canal and about your dad watching the trip through his watch. Great trip.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks for the comment ! We had a blast in Panama and so many things we didn’t have time for also.

[@Retrofire75]

We missed u!

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks !!! So glad to be back and ready for 2 wheels !!!

[@WindyTherapy]

Cool story about the Coca Cola cafe !

[@WindyTherapy]

The lock engineering is truly amazing ! I just watched a show about another country that has a different way to connect Atlantic to the Pacific but involves a train track so the ships won’t cross.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

That must be about the plan in Mexico !!! I heard it’s operating now !!!

[@glennsmith1040]

Very cool for your Dad. Very respectful. What an incredible adventure/experience. Thanks for sharing it. 👍 💯 🇨🇦

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

[@northbysoutheast5439]

Thank you for sharing the story of the watch 😔

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks for watching and for taking the time out of your day to comment. Cheers !

[@J0ANNAHAYDEN]

Crazy! So glad I found your video. We are going in March 20 25 and will be going to the San Blas Islands & doing a partial Canal transit tour exactly like you guys !Wow those people really like each other when you were talking about the Geisha coffee!!😂At the coffee shop! Thank you for sharing!

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

We loved Panama. That Canal tour was a backlist item for both me and my Dad and it did not disappoint. That was such a great day The people in Panama are so friendly. Hope you enjoy the trip as much as we did !!!! Thanks for watching and for leaving your comment !!! Cheers

[@georgeflach7626]

Another Great video , I love traveling along with you guys and I’m sure your dad loved it too

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks bud. You know funny thing is, that was an old watch the type you manually wind… been sitting in a drawer for almost 3 years. That day I just put it on and did t wind it. When on the bus after the tour I looked down to take the watch off and put it away and the second hand was moving !!!! WOW. Gave me chills.

[@HarleysDinersRides]

Great tour and really enjoyed the canal tour, cheers

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Thanks Dave. Was a special tour for us.

[@casedoumasr656]

Well love your tour of the Panama area and the sentimental part great idea . Panama retirement or back to BC we shall see 🤔

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Man Panama was quite a place. Surprised us …. But it’s not a slam dunk though. So glad we made the effort for this leg of the trip. Thanks for your comment.

[@casedoumasr656]

​@@SHHHMotoTravelsJust to let you know can not leave comments on short videos must be a new u tube thing .p.s. 3/21 🤔

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

@@casedoumasr656- That’s odd. … even today I have been getting some comments on shorts we have made. Hmmm. KZbin ghosts.

[@CarlosEBernal]

The "Esplanada" is a causeway built out of the excavation material (mostly rocks) from the construction of the Panama Canal at the beginning of the 1900's. I was American engineering at its best...

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

That’s great to know, the city tour bud never mentioned that to us. Thanks !

[@CarlosEBernal]

@@SHHHMotoTravels the Panama Canal construction films in the Canal museum showed the flat trains that carried excavated rock debris from the Culebra cut out to being dumped into the sea building the Amador causeway to the islands by the entrance of the Canal. It was in itself an engineering marvel, trains being loaded nonstop on the digging site, moving the tracks to new location by lifting them and unloaded by a gigantic "snow plow" without stopping, all in a continuous nonstop process... all in the early 1906-09 period approximately. I will look for the film on KZbin to share with you. Also, something you did not mentioned on the Pensionado Visa is no-property taxes for the 1st 20 years on your home. There are other communities in the Highlands such as Boquete that expats like with the perfect climate year around, the coffee and farming regions of Panama. Thank you for creating the video, it's very enjoyable.

[@theresacourage3237]

Great video. I love how you cover a lot quickly. You must do great job editing. On another note - can you tell me the name of the tour you took of the canal? We're going in Dec. and I can't find one that does the whole canal.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Hey 👋. Thanks for watching and for reaching out. We went with PMA Tours. Panama Marine Adventures. It was a wonderful tour. I think website is pmatours.net Hope that helps ?!?

[@theresacourage3237]

@@SHHHMotoTravels Thanks, that does help. I liked your video on Coronado too. Maybe I'll comment to help the ratings! You deserve it because it's also good.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

@@theresacourage3237 - Thanks for the kind words !!

[@yanikshaberkeley7918]

I think u guys need to consider leaving here in Panama. There is a lot to offer in this country and not only speak Spanish but also English speaking as well.

[@SHHHMotoTravels]

Hello Thanks for watching and commenting on our little video. Ya, we have already left Panama but what we want to do is take Spanish lessons and hope to come back in a couple years when we can most easily communicate with all the great local people we have met there. I know there is lots of English there but we want to respect the Panamanians and try to communicate in their home country language. Thanks !!
