7/8th January - Island of Mykonos / by David Harrison

Highway 1 - Panama's main Autopista - 486km from Paraiso to Paso Canoas - what better place to take a break than Mykonos!  An island of luxury and air-con tranquility on the outskirts of Santiago.  We looked for a Campsite - honest!  Nothing doing.  Plenty of Beach Resort All Inclusives at $250 a night!  But no Camping!! 

Booking.com surprised us with Hotel Mykonos at a deep discount AND a deep Pool with swim up Bar! Plus a trad Greek Restaurant - think Souvlaki, Taramasalata, Stuffed Eggplant & proper Greek Salad!! How could we swerve that one? 

Enjoyed it so much we stayed for two nights.

Amanda loved the sweet Toad Houses around the Swimming Pool - until she discovered next morning they were for LatAm Rap Poolside Ents (all weather loudspeakers)!!

Bye bye Santiago!  Roll on David!!
