The weather did not cooperate for Christmas Day - It started blowing and raining through the night and kept up all day. We had a pretty quiet day, but we did talk to the kids on the sat phone. I got my propane tank filled which was nice to know that I will have propane for our visitors at the end of January. We actually filled the tanks ourselves by going to an island and hanging the full tank up on a plam tree and then hooking a hose to the empty tank on the ground and letting gravity do the work. I also found out that there is a guy here that goes to Panama every month and he will shop for you. I am hoping that this will be our chance to reprovision the boat with items that are not possible to get around here.

Our evening over at Better Days was fantastic. After a great meal we played some games and had a lot of laughs.

On our snorkeling outing on Christmas Eve, I touched something that has given me a rash on my left arm. There are three spots of it, each the size of a loonie and it is extremely itchy. I hope it goes away soon.
