Not too long ago you were very excited about the new visa that cost just a little more than $500, didn't require an FBI report, and didn't require a lawyer. What happened??? Have you ever been to Portugal? Can you even begin to speak Portuguese? Whatever you decide, I know you will never find another community like Boquete in Portugal.

This has always been my favorite house in the Boquete area. I think Mary Ellen Watts did a water color painting of it awhile ago.

Wishing you all the best. When you get to the end of this process, would you mind posting your experiences here on CL?
I believe that you don't need an attorney for this type of visa. In fact, it appears that having an attorney is discouraged.

I felt like it was a 7. Biggest one I've ever experienced.

While driving by Alto Dorado this morning I noticed that the "Casa de Jamon" is no longer on the Gago building. And it looked like it was closed. Did they go out of business?

What is a "cubetazo"? My online dictionary doesn't have it. Is it like a tapas?

Worst quake I've felt in the 14 years I've been here. Several of us were actually drinking the Hacienda Esmeralda Geisha Coffee (the most expensive in the world) when it hit and this wonderful coffee sloshed all over the tablecloth. What a waste. Here's another photo of the grocery store in Alto Boquete:

Hanne from Potrerillos almost always brings puppies looking for homes to the flea market. There are many wonderful surprises to discover at the Chiriqui Storage flea market including Penny's almost famous $1 hot dogs.
Lots of fun meeting your friends and neighbors and enjoying a wonderful hot dog lunch.
Did I mention that Penny also sells sodas and water to wash down the hot dogs.
Come on out and enjoy and maybe find a treasure or two (in addition to the cheap hot dog).

It's quite mind blowing how much stuff has been assembled, tested, and priced at the Handicap Foundation. More than they've ever had in the past. Also, something new this time: Penny's almost famous $1 hot dogs will be available. All proceeds to the Handicap Foundation of course.

This is an ongoing problem with people who advertise their business or charity event. They get so caught up in their project that they assume everyone knows who they are and where they are. I know the Newslady and she refuses to screen the emails for missing information. This is the responsibility of those who write the news.boquete emails.
It never ceases to amaze me how lacking in basic rudimentary knowledge of salesmanship most people are.
They put stupid subject lines on their emails (like "please post") and never think for one second that they have to entice the reader to open the email in the first place.
They spend 10 seconds slapping out an email on their I-pad and expect 2000 readers to care enough to open it and read it.
It's my opinion that if you expect to burden almost 2000 inboxes, you ought to spend some time composing something that is complete, readable, informative and accurate.

Excellent interpretation but I'm not sure that a 'special' at a restaurant has to be a regular menu item.
For example when one of the local Panamanian businesses such as Panamonte, Sabor or El Oasis have a 'special' they generally advertise "no discounts".
This is a game played by several restaurants. They make a lot of one menu item, put it on the chalk board as a "SPECIAL" at the regular price and then feel justified in not giving the discount. Chef Craig from Ruinas and most recently from Seasons was good at this ploy. I got soured on Seasons when I ordered their special rib dinner which wasn't on the menu but I was believing it couldn't be much more than the Rock charged for a rib dinner. Well, it turned out to be $29 and no discount was allowed.

This has been an ongoing problem with Seasons and Sandeep Lal, the owner, needs to know about it and correct it.

I love the Canasta Basica in San Francisco Plaza. Best place ever to buy chickens and eggs. They also give a discount if you promise to vote for the daughter who is the diputado.
