is that still a popular honeymoon location? and the Panama Papers? I was somehow thinking (sic) of Panama Red and Acapulco Gold, which may be a bit obscure for some, but obscurity is me, ok?
a tip of the panama to Susy our new mayor! those new benches/fences in Central Park? paid for by El Mastil and El Acuario, the two largest hardware stores in town…I don’t know but I suspect that she leaned on them, in an o so gentle fashion…otherwise there’d be little stickers/signs, reading ‘donated by …’ nah, not in the New Antigua! personally I would liked to have seen more spikes and fewer finials (decorative stuff) just let that cheapo little caesars pizza-eating crowd try to picnic on the grass anymore….wonder if the once-available wi-fi service will return..I betcha it will…image, and all that.
ah, mystery solved…Michael Rayment, out of the public eye for six weeks or so? had a stroke…no, he wasn’t playing golf…cardiac stuff….he’s in England, under ‘care.’ and for some of you ‘off-shore’ people, try this before you come to Antigua..http://tripscout.co/antigua-guatemala what the hell? my spiffy world-wide semi-best seller (I wish) Our Man in Antigua-stan is as expensive in a night in a hostal with a beer or two….well, local sales haven’t been asstronomical, lets say…a steady drip, ok? so, do the audio walking tour and get off cheap..no, I’m not making any $$…I just think its a resource.
why are 99.9% of the farmacias/drugstores in the west end of town? ok, here’s another freebie… http://www.examiner.com/article/marbel-goes-to-porky-s and I’m all for globalization…my old Rolex that died when I dropped it on the tile floor?(sound familiar?) returns from Havana in a month or so, rehabilitated for a 1/4 of a US quote..and I’m told, posteriously as usual, that the week-end crush (jammed/slammed) up at Frank’s Place, El Cerro Whatever, is typical/tipico..no, ‘posteriously’ isn’t a real word…I made it up, like usual. And ^%$#@!the American Legion Library? still looking/needs a place to unpack…rent $$? of course…talk to Bill S in the park (or me)…I’ve signed up at the Rainbow but I’m almost in the Danielle Steele section…save us! it’s that or I go..alas…to a Kindle
