Traveling with children can be challenging especially if proper arrangements are not made. As such, parents should pack the necessary things that not only keep the children comfortable, but busy during the journey. Failure to this, the children may become jittery and may even make the travel uncomfortable for other in the car. Worse still, the children may fail to enjoy the journey, which is every parent’s nightmare. To make a smooth start, parents should buy the children new toys if the budget allows. The new toy should only be used, once everyone is in the car, as it will provide enough distraction to the children as a start off. Puppets, stuffed animals and dolls can also be parked especially if the children draw comfort from such during meal or nap times.

One should also park snacks, sandwiches and beverages that the children like to provide enough nourishment during the journey. Remember that unlike adults, children do not know how to control their hunger. In addition, spill-free bottles should be brought along as this makes drinking beverages less uneventful. A large cover should be spread where the children will be seated to catch any spills and food crumbs. The parent should avoid packing gravy foods, and instead park foods such as chips and other dry foods, which will cause minimal spills in the cat. Once they are fed, the children will most likely want to take a nap, as such, the parent should pack enough covers and pillows to make nap time in the car comfortable. It is also advisable to pack car games for the children to play with during the journey. If the car has a DVD player, entertaining DVD’s will most likely provide the much-needed distraction to the children who may be bored by the long travel.

Blank papers, pencils, markers, crayons and books should also be packed for the older children. Hand-held video games are also a perfect inclusion for travel. Cartoon based DVD’s are especially appealing to children. Alternatively, one can park different music CD’s that the children. One should also pack enough clothes to last the children the entire time they will be away from home. Parents should be careful enough to check out the weather conditions in their travel destinations. This determines the kind of clothes they pack. One thing to remember is that despite the summer weathers in their destinations, warm clothes should be parked for any weather eventuality.

I recently returned from Panama where I was hosted by the Lost Coast Explorer, a 100′ converted crabber. The LCE acts as a mother ship and accommodates up to 12 guests. There are (3) 25′ cruisers equipped for diving, fishing and shore excursions.

The majority of our Panamanian adventure was spent in Coiba National Park which opened to tourism in 1992. Coiba Island served as Panama’s penal colony for 86 years. Today, Coiba is gaining international attention due to the trophy size Blue and Black Marlin that frequent the legendary Hannibal Bank. In addition to fishing, Coiba is drawing divers, surfers, researchers and eco-tourists from around the world.

The fishing, diving and surfing in Coiba are world-class. On the last day of our excursion, a member of our group hooked a 1000+ pound Black Marlin. I will always remember the look of awe on his face when he realized what had hit his bait. Other species targeted in Coiba include Sail Fish, Yellow fin Tuna, Skip Jack, Jack Travalle, Barracuda, and Grouper.

I had the supreme pleasure of diving on some of the most pristine coral reefs and pinnacles I have ever seen. There was no evidence that anyone had visited these sites before us. Giant Manta Rays, White Tip Sharks, and Green Sea Turtles seem undaunted by our presence. Whale Sharks frequent these waters September through January.

Coiba is just beginning to show up on the radar screen for the more adventurous travelers. Interestingly, very few Panamanians have visited Coiba. Its history as a Penile Colony has kept it a foreboding destination for the locals.

For an exquisite contrast to Coiba, I suggest spending a couple of nights in El Valle. El Valle is a small mountain town located midway between Santiago and Panama City. The town sits in the crater of an ancient volcano. It is much cooler at these altitudes. I stayed at Park Eden, a lovely Bed & Breakfast just out of town. The grounds were park like, and the owners spoke English. If you go, have lunch at Restaurante Bruschetta. I suggest the clams in a wonderful broth served in a clay pot.

You must also visit the historic Casco Viejo, or old City. This is the historic region and offers an interesting glimpse into Panama’s past.

Don’t worry about currency conversions. Panama uses US currency. My flight to Panama City was very reasonable, just $325 RT from Los Angeles.
