Picked up a handmade Haitian cloth doll for Gi. On one side is a happy face. The flip side is a sad face. Thought it was very cute. Also did a little picture for Gi during an art workshop on board the last day of the cruise. The instructor guided us on how to color the lizard in the tradition of a Panamanian matriarchical group of people. He informed us that daughters were highly valued in this particular group of people living in Panama. The women of this group made clothing out of fabric that they dye in bright, busy designs. Thought this was a very good omen for Gi. She will always be highly valued in my and hubby's life.
