Karen Duquette enjoyed the Embera Tribe Village in Panama
Natives
at Embera Tribe Village in Panama and the indigenous groups living in the Panama Province at the Chagres National Park area. |

After an enjoyable boat ride, Karen Duquette, her line dance friends, and other cruise passengers exited the boat and everyone was greeted by a group of native villagers playing music. Only the men played the musical instruments. |

Below: Just as it was time to head back to the boat, it started to rain. Karen Duquette and Janice Mackey did not seem to mind the rain and they even paused to take a photo of each other. Most of the other people ran to the boat like their life depended on it. Who knows, maybe some of them melted. (Note of interest: They got wet on the boat anyway). |
