Hello all, and so sorry that this update was so long in coming! This entry covers May thru July so three months worth of fun! We are still in Panama on the Caribbean side, and continue to explore new areas. There is just so much to see here. We stayed in Bocas del Toro until May enjoying good friends, the surf, restaurants, as well as some remote spots. In early May we made a two night sail back to the San Blas islands just in time for dear friends to fly in for a short visit. After they left, we spent six more weeks in the San Blas islands revisiting some of our favorite spots and also finding some new great anchorages. In June we sailed to Shelter Bay Marina where we have parked the boat in a slip for a few months. Now it's mid July and we are in Florida spending some nice time with Steve's Dad. So take a look at what we've been up to while "zipping" around Panama.

    Following along from Houston and loving every update. That shot of the anchorage at dawn is going straight on my wall.

    We crossed paths with you in Bocas years ago and have been reading ever since. Fair winds to you both.

    My grandkids and I look up every island you mention on the map. It has turned into our little geography lesson.

    Twenty years of this and still going. You two are the reason we finally put a deposit on a boat of our own.
