Social club takes to the water and launches full schedule of fun packed events
Out and About
with Dra Lourdes Quiijada
Twenty five members of the CanadaPLUS Club took to the water recently with Jungle Land Explorers, to explore Lake Gatun, discover more about the canal expansion, and dine aboard the lake’s only floating hotel.
Many brought old skills back to life as they kayaked to a hidden beach and waterfall, and all returned with cameras loaded with wild life and scenic pictures, including some of the on board menagerie of tour host and guide, “Captain” Carl Davis. {jathumbnail off}. Making friends with a toucan, a snake, a monkey a night monkey or an iguana was all part of the entertainment, backed up by a heary meal.
