Full American-Panamian breakfast followed with bucket of sweat heading up in to the range of mountains crossing towards the Pacific side and the city of “David”. Saw a real snake crossing the road (small and pretty but no idea of its type). Half way up the climb at 650 meters high I had to capitulate and took the bus just to avoid the pouring rain and tiredness (possibly body needs a bit more gentle riding after my illness). I was dropped about 10 km before David city so cycled in and discovered nothing special. David is a connecting hub for local cities and sites. A busy town with very little to offer except shops bursting with goods from the US and cold beer. I chose the latter then decided to go on overnight trip to Panama City by bus. I just could not miss the opportunity of seeing the Canal, being so close.
