Panama Canal

Shelter Bay marina was an enjoyable stay providing us the opportunity to visit Colon and also get Sojourn 1 ready for the canal. From the start we were impressed with how well organised the process of preparing and booking for the canal was. Onno joined us from Curacao to be part of the crew for the [...]

I arrived back in Curacao on 24 Jan to get work done on Sojourn 1 before Sue arrived. I was surprised by the number of people who were staying at the marina on their boats. Most were waiting for the weather to improve with others waiting on work or parts. A large number of different nationalities were represented and I think I was only one that could not speak more than one language. A very social group with BBQ's, movies, and a few beers enjoyed.
Sue ended up being delayed in Australia so I had to spread the jobs out to give me something to do. Its given me the opportunity to spend time and look around Curacao, including Carnival. We plan to head to Jamaica and Cuba a few days after Sue arrives, weather permitting (as usual).
