Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

Our final stop on this voyage, Puerto Limon, Costa Rica….  I went into town early to get in a walk and snap a few pics…  There wasn’t a lot open but I did get to the market to buy a couple of kilos of Habaneros for the Indonesian Crew.  Then it was back to the Retreat to spend a relaxing day in the sun….  Two sea days and this voyage will draw to a close.

Panama Canal

Well…..  here I am again at the Panama Canal.  Still love it after so many visits, one of the most amazing feats created by man.  It was a very bright and sunny day with very high humidity and a horrible heat index but that didn’t send into the shade.  We were a couple of hours late in arriving at the canal due to an unforeseen medical debarkation at 3:15 am in Aruba the night after we left Curacao.  The transit was nice, relaxing in the Retreat even better.  Due to our late arrival, we arrived into Colon late as well which kept the stop fairly short, enough time to pick up the hundreds who took an excursion.  All in all it was a great day!
