We're off again

Thanks to a promo flight by Copa Airlines and new five year passports we're on the road again. Firstly a night in TO to help pay for the parking - stay one night get free parking for a week. Then a casual move to Pearson for an 8.40am flight.

Land in Panama City at 2.12pm and then take off again on the Lima leg at 3.36pm and land at 7.04pm - that's the theory we'll just see what happens. We are accustomed to having anything happen and we have plenty of time to adjust if it does happen.

The wonders of the modern world kicked in a couple of days ago. Worried about the airport shuttle companies not answering their emails I decided to phone the hotel. Jumped on Skype punched the numbers and within seconds was talking to a young lady at the desk of the Hotel Las Palmas; our soon to be home for the next seven days. "Habla ingles?" I asked in my best Spanish, which isn't best by anybody's standards, "Yes" and we were off discussing the pickup problem, turns out to be no problem (we'll see!)

So see you all on this site over the next week, we will try to post daily but might get held up so regularity may not be the strong suit for this effort, but we will try.

PS
We left early to attend the Home Show at the International Centre, failed to eat before we left, had a couple of hot dogs at the IC but only one each - 2 dogs $11.30 - wow. The food better be cheaper in Lima!
