The southern part of the Azuero Peninsula of Panama is known for the beautiful beaches. Since I was down there visiting my good friend and fellow blogger, we decided to pick up another friend and blogger and enjoy a visit to some of the beaches in the area. It was a most enjoyable morning with great company, and the scenery was so beautiful. I had a hard time deciding on a reasonable number of pictures to share because I have so many that I like.
It was a short but wonderful visit to Pedasi, and I was happy to see all of my friends. I thought Allison was going to be away but her plans were delayed by a day, so I got to visit with her and her family on Friday evening. She has recently moved to Pedasi with her husband and two daughters. Look for “the Panama Pause” if you are on Facebook. It is interesting to read about their lives with school age children, and their sweet dog Finny.
Saturday afternoon after our beaches outing, we got a bite of lunch and went back to the house to relax and chat. Later in the afternoon I caught up with my friends and other fellow blogger Al and Shelly. They have a growing business offering house and pet sitting, so if you need someone give them a shout. His blog is also a lot of fun, often with a humorous take on some of the things that go on in Panama.
You just never know what will happen when you start writing a blog! Because of my blog and theirs, I have all the good friends mentioned in this post, all living in the same area, and all writing interesting stories about their unique and different lives in Pedasi.
This is the story of my visit to Pedasi (or perhaps just an excuse to post photos :D), but I’m sure it won’t be the last visit with my good friends, nor the last photos of this beautiful area. As you all know from my last post my friends took me to Chitre the next morning where I caught buses back to David. I had a front seat on the bus from Santiago to David, so the next post will be about the construction and road conditions on the Pan-American Highway.
Great Photos, Gracias!

Glad you like them! You live in a beautiful area so I don’t think one can take anything but nice photos.

Thank you sooo much Kris. Made it down Thanksgiving. Did the downtown P.C. & El Valle de Anton. Coming down again in Juno to explore the “midlands” Pedasi, Santa Fe, Santa Catalina and all points in between. Goodness…this IS getting serious! Love the blog! Hopefully see you on the third trip.

It seems to me that there is so much beauty all over this country. These beaches are definitely beautiful, and very natural feeling too with very few people and little human interference.

It is an unspoiled paradise from the little that I have experienced.
On a different note, I would like to hire the lawyer you used from David. You can back channel me.

Thanks for the lovely post, Kris. I love meeting my blogging friends from around the world! Somehow, I accidentally deleted your previous post, so now I have to go back and read it. I am so proud of you and your bicycle touring. Cory and Tina just finished a bicycle tour in Florida. 422 miles from Tampa to Key West. They are psyched. I’m sure their travels will never be the same.

How is the beach to swim in, didn’t see anyone in the water. Is it safe to swim, or is there currents. Carole

From what I hear it is very safe for swimming. My friends also like to play in the waves with their boogie boards. Some of the beaches are also very popular with surfers.
