We were thrilled to have our friends from Anchorage, Kelsey, Jonathan, Viv and baby William visit us in Bocas! We filled their 5 day visit with time at the beach, a jungle farm tour & lunch at La Loma, diving, and wine tasting! Viv joined Rose’s preschool class for the week and she fit right in. Friday was a Halloween party at school. It was fun for all the kids to get dressed up together for a festive day. The kids loved having buddies to play with at home. Walker said several times “it’s a pleasure to spend time with baby William”. We all agreed! It truly was a treat to have the Pistotniks visit and even got to celebrate Kelsey’s birthday on her last day. There’s been a bit of a political uprising in Panamá city which added some challenge to their visit, but they took it all in stride and made the most of it!
