Local youth engage in an impromptu soccer match within the historic walls of Portobelo's Spanish fortification at dusk. Five years before his attack on Panama City, Henry Morgan had already made his reputation by sacking this once-wealthy port town in 1668, demonstrating Spanish vulnerability in the Caribbean. The casual recreation within these historic confines highlights how Panama's colonial past integrates with its vibrant present, as local communities maintain connections to sites that witnessed pivotal moments in the struggle for New World dominance.
