In the Chiriqui Highlands of Panama, Xmas decorations and preparations have added another layer of color to an already vibrant atmosphere. I wandered around the friendly town of Guadalupe and captured some of my favorite festive homes. In the daylight and at night with lights aglow, with garlands and bows and beautiful flowers grown right here at home in this region.
The Xmas menu here in Guadalupe includes a selection of Patacones con Bistek Giusada, Tortillas de Maiz, Arroz Blanco, Sopa de Gallina Sancochado, Carne Ahumada, Cerdo al Plancha, and CarrimaƱolas – (Fried plantain slices, beef with onions, corn tortillas, white rice, chicken soup, smoked meat, grilled pork and yucca fritters stuffed with meat).
Merry Christmas from the Chiriqui Highlands! Hope your Holidays are filled with bright lights, big hearts, warm meals and many special moments to capture.
Beauty is all around you. Look in, look out, and follow the light! ~Louise
