Sleep, rest, then train in Fightshape.
Today has been a beautiful day in Panama city. Blue skies and sunshine. Unfortunately, I haven’t enjoyed it much, since I really needed to just sleep and do nothing. I spent most of the day looking for plane tickets, trying to find out where to go and when. In the evening, Giovanni picked me up. He saw I was in Panama and invited me to come train in Fightshape, which is a new gym only a few months old.
The place was very nice, looked good and clean. Everything was new and shiny. I made the mistake of eating too much fruit and nuts right before training, so my stomach didn’t feel too good when I started to move around on the mat. The humidity was crazy, it reminded me of one of the gyms in Manila, although not as bad.
The training was good, I got to roll with the instructor Paulo, a giant black belt. One of those technical guys, who are also so big and strong, that it is impossible to move them. It was good fun though and I got to practice my best tapping out techniques.
In the evening, I went out to eat a little bit with Miguel and his girlfriend, and now it is time to sleep even more. Tomorrow, if the weather is good, we will go to the beach and check out the surf.
