Half-way to Panama from Cartagena. Time to put in a couple of reefs and hope the lightning doesn't get you.

A perfect San Blas Island

The anchorage in Cartagena. Days of no wind and stifling heat then a half hour of 50 knot blasts to shake it all up.

A typical horizon in the San Blas Islands during the rainy season: hot sunshine and looming thunderclouds.

Dear Bruce and Tiff ... thank you for sharing your photos and adventures ongoing. We were in Cartagena a few years ago and had the good fortune to have a local friend who is Columbian and she recommended we ignore the "tourist traps" and go walk in the old walled city ... which we loved and I see that you also found it. Wonder is you see the artisans in the San Blas islands still making the beautiful molas? And soon you will traverse that amazing piece of engineering ... the Panama Canal. We were amazed, delighted, fascinated and so enjoyed that traverse. If you stop in Panama City there is a wonderful museum in the old part of the city which lays out how the city used to be and lots of parkland areas within. Safe and wonderful journeys to you all. The girls are growing SO tall! Be well.

I came across a website that is focused on discussing the value of traditional college degrees in the American educational system.
