New Traffic Light In David

Yesterday, as I was leaving the Gringo’s of David get together, I noticed that David has added a new traffic light at the corner where you turn to go to the airport by the police station.

The changes just keep coming. There are a few more locations that need to have traffic lights now. In the [...]

EconoHogar

Last Friday, I decided it was time to replace my aging mattress with a new one. After looking around a little, I went back to a store I use a lot, which is EconoHogar. Econohogar is across from Romeros in Dolegita. I don’t think I have posted it before, so here are a few photos.
EconoHogar [...]

Sonitec is now TECNOFOTO

If you are familiar with Sonitec across from Parque Cervantes, it has changed its name. It is now TECNOFOTO. It is the same management, just a new name. To the left is Liberia Regional, another place you will want to visit.

MUNDIAL RAWSA

Today I wanted to buy some cordial glasses. Drinking a little Baileys out of a Mason jar kind of takes away from a social event, so I decided to splurge and get something more appropriate.
I went to MUNDIAL RAWSA. I have shopped there many times before, but I don’t remember ever sharing information about this [...]

It has been a while since I took a photo of the new shopping area Chiriquí Center, which is going up on the InterAmerican Highway. It looks like it may get finished this year. What do you think?

Second Set Of Traffic Lights Are Active

I had to drop a person off at the bus terminal this morning. Be aware that the traffic lights are active now and you can no longer turn loft off Ave Obladia. That was a surprise, so I just circled the block and now went through the light making a right turn toward the bus [...]

Second Traffic Light Location in David

A second traffic light location has been established. It is at the intersection near Revilla, Elmac and the road to the bus terminal on Avenue Obaldia.
There is getting to be enough traffic in David and I can think of more locations that need lights.
Here is the post on the first traffic light.

I Stand Corrected

Last April 10th, I wrote “What’s Wrong With This Picture”. Specifically, it was this photo that I was referring to.
I have changed my mind and decided that it wasn’t put up in error. I guess I just wasn’t wise enough to recognize the wisdom and thought that went into MOP’s decision to install it.
Since [...]

A Traffic Advisory From A Chiriquí Chatter Reader

I just received the following email:
Dear Mr. Williams,
When driving either way along Ave. 8a Oeste (the one perpendicular to KFC), please be especially careful at the intersection with Calle Central (or, Dr. Ernesto Pérez Balladares St.). The latter has a recently asphalt-paved section between the Interamerican Highway and Chiriqui Hospital. Since “la Calle [...]
