Panama – Beautiful Mountain Town Of Boquete

2023-04-192023-10-16Rob Cathy6 Comments on Panama – Beautiful Mountain Town Of Boquete

We really wanted to experience this part of Panama because of its “perfect” all year round high temperature of 26C (80F) that reminds me of a sunny day in spring or fall. It is cooler than the […]
