Tuesday, April 6
After a few days in the direct, hot, equatorial, sun, today was to be a day of shade, light sun only and perhaps some indoor activities. 
We took a drive, about 30km North, to the town of Chitre (and enjoyed the A/C in the cars). We took in the Barcelona-Arsenal match during a tasty 
lunch at El Aire Libre and then toured the town, all the while making complete spectacles of ourselves.
We visited the Museo de Chitre and the Chitre Cathedral. A small town, both items, although important to the town, were relatively small. At the Museum, the fee was $1.00 per adult and 25 cents per child. We were accompanied by a guide for a 30 minute visit of the history of Chitre. Spanish Version only. We also stopped at La Arena to look at some pottery and grab coconut flavored ice cream cones for the kids. The return drive involved a lot of U-turns and some damage to the Derzak mobile that required quite a few drinks when we returned home. A perpendicular piece of railroad track sticking straight out of the road attacked the front fender. No worries. It all seems to snap right back into place, sort of.
