Lisa The Sailor

We have arrived safely in Panama! Hooray!
This has been the most unusual experience of my life so far....if that´s possible!!
I have thrown myself into the sailor life, bravely taking my watches at night, and steering manually through days and nights of 40 knots wind with waves as high as 7 metres! This is completely awesome. I have made some great friendships already with the captain and crew, and this journey is only half over! Plus, I have experienced no signs of any sea sickness, which as you can imagine is a massive bonus!!

We have to go now to sort out our immigration papers with the harbour master, but as we are spending 2 days here before travelling down the Panama Canal, I will have another opportunity to write an update with some photos I hope!

Happy New Year to everyone!!!!

OK.....here are some photos!
