Pictures from Week 2 - Casco Viejo






The Ruins in Casco Viejo, Panama City













Buildings in Casco Viejo































The Golden church in Casco Viejo, As Kitty tells me...
everything inside the church is lined with solid gold trim,
when the city was raided by pirates, the priest covered the entire inside with mud to hide the gold... after the city was raided, the pirates came to the church to loot its riches, when they entered they felt so bad for the church that they made a donation
