Leaving Boquete

Monday, 13. August 2007 by Sharon Brown

Leaving Boquete seemed very strange today…it started feeling a little like home there….except I really need my family and miss them terribly.  It has been so nice staying connected with my husband by cell phone and email…being able to send pictures and some little movie clips, to give my family a feel for what it has been like for me on my visit. 

I have met such wonderful, kind, helpful people and know that when the little snags come along when moving anywhere, especially to a new country, there are many people ready to help my family out.  I have so longed for my family to be with me here on this trip, and am so thankful and excited that we all will be together in Panama very soon.

Now comes the time of packing, sorting through what we definitely need to bring for the first (3-4) months, selling a car, getting our (2) dogs ready with the proper paperwork, and making arrangements for when we land in Panama!  Whew!  It’s a time for a little hard work, patience, prayer, and extra prayer for our entire family as we try with God’s help to get it all done.

I am so thankful to my precious husband Bruce for all the wonderful arrangements he made for my stay in Panama city and in Boquete.  Thank you honey for your love for me and for taking the time to research and find such neat and beautiful places for me to stay and visit.  Thank you for your patience with me, for praying for me, and believing in me that I could make this trip to Panama.
