200 Miles from Panama

Well, we have about 200 miles to go. Up until this evening, the winds were great and we were making good time. The wind died a few hours ago and we're now motoring. It's been easy sailing by day but the nights have been a little more exciting with lots of shipping traffic, major lightening storms and shifting winds. Fortunately we are now well clear of the Columbian coast, so that's at least one alleviating factor.
We hope to be in Panama on Monday morning. This will be the first time we're going into a port we've already been to, so hopefully it will be easier the second time around. In any case, we're looking forward to a good celebration!
