Well, it's now Tuesday, and my parents left on Sunday. They were here for a week, which was really great. We got to see a decent amount of stuff yet still relax plenty. We spent the first night in Panama City, then Monday-Friday out at the Gamboa Rainforest Resort (so I could pop into the lab a few times), and then for Friday night we went out to Isla Taboga, shown in the photo, and came back to the city Saturday afternoon to spend the night there before their early morning return to the States. We got to check out the canal and the forest a bit, and while they didn't get to see any of my favorite monkey species, we saw lots of birds, lizards, turtles, and other fun stuff like that... plus a sloth, which had been a goal of mine for a long time now. Now I miss them a ton (plus it was really great to be able to sleep in a nice hotel bed and use hot water and watch TV and eat great meals multiple times a day!) but oh well, I'll be home in less than 7 weeks! Can't wait. Other than that, things are alright, though I'm having some trouble getting my work going, but it's something I don't really have control over, so oh well. No worries from me... just gotta concentrate on my grad school apps and things like that!
