After a great sleep, I was up early, breaky was pretty darn good. Bjorn wanted to get to the Aduana early to get our bikes imported properly. Finding the Aduana is not easy, but with coordinates, no problem. Before we can import our bikes, insurance is required. Finding the insurance agent was like finding a needle in a hay stack as Panama's streets are poorly coordinated and signs are few. After finding the Seguro (insurance agent) took 2 hours to get $15 insurance for 4 bikes, then back to the aduana. By the time they processed us, it was 3pm. Then off to the local mall to the MAC store to get my computer repaired. Huge mall, very current, with all the normal stores in it. Felt like being in the States. Find the MAC store and they had closed their service department permanently. Plan B. Next store in the middle of town. On the way back to the bikes, we saw a Suzuki store and as we will be needing front tires, stopped in to find out if they have some. They told us they did, but at their other location, so we head up there and find out that they have tires but, not radials as required on Vstroms. After wasting our time on this adventure, we finally arrive at the MAC store 15 minutes before closing. They were good. Getting a new hard drive and information retrieved and installed onto the new drive.
