My sister and I are trying to plan a little getaway together in June. It is always a little tricky for us to figure out where we can meet up. Since she lives in the USVI in the Caribbean and I am up in Ann Arbor it can be difficult for us to both find flights to the same place at around the same arrival and departure times for a reasonable price.
Her island has very limited flight options but after a some investigative work it is looking like we are going to be able to meet up in Panama. I am really excited. Not only does offer the chance to see the Panama Canal but there are so many other wonderful places to explore.
I want to visit the old city, Panama Viejo, as well as Casco Viejo to see some of the beautiful architecture. I also want to travel to El Valle, a small town situated in a dormant volcano crater, to enjoy the mountains and surrounding forests.
We are still in the early stages of planning (getting flights and working out some accommodations) but hopefully it all comes together. Do you have any summer getaways coming up? Where are you going (or wish you were going)? Are you in the midst of planning right now?
