A view from the airplane window of Panama City. During the last years it has been a construction rush in this city, there are many skyscrapers in front of the Pacific Ocean. At the moment that I took this photo the tide was low, so there is a lot of muddy waters on the shore, where the refections of the buildings can be see.

Since the theme of the contest is South America. Panama does not belong to South America nor North America, it is in Central America. North America starts in the Yucatan peninsula, and Central America, is located between the Yucatan peninsula and the Isthmus of Panama. So the three parts form the American continent. In English it is usually called “The Americas”, however is Spanish it is in singular.
