I eat at the Bucaneros twice, yummy food for a fraction of what one is expected to pay in a similar spot anywhere in the "civilized" world. If it wasn't so hot during the day, I would have put an easel on the ground and paint all day what nature has painted already. But why, why are people still throwing trash in the water and why nobody up there can do anything about it? I must say this was by far the most frustrating thing for me when visiting Panama, especially in such developed areas. The most beautiful scenery next to the most horrific trash. Even on Taboga island -- what a jewel!-- there was a huge area of trash right there on the beach. The rain came suddently but I stood there stubbornly picking up my own trash and "storing" it in a bag for later...when I will find a trash can. There were no trash bins. I will give you the example of Romania where I used to live. They had more or less the same problem. It took a couple of years of sustained effort from mayors and media. Now, there are trash bins everywhere, a good garbage collecting system, informed people and... it's clean. It is not impossible and it doesn't take too long! Why not start a campaign, cleaning the water by the shore of the Amador causeway? - Lamer Fri, 09 Jan 2009 07:23:04 +0100
