Time Machine is in the Caribbean!
We made it to Colon in the Caribbean Sea. We got cancelled the first day and we were unable to make our Gatun lock time the next day (not our fault, naturally)… but basically, no major collisions, dismastings, or unintentional persons overboard and that’s what I call a successful canal crossing.
Details will follow once I sort through the many gigs of photos and video bits and pick out the winners.
Congrats, Aaaaiiiiihhheeeeeee
wow through the canal

Hey kiddos,
I am so relieved!! I hope you weren’t charged the extra fees for your delays on the lake. Hope Ben is having a great time and you are tutoring him in the arts of the sailing life. Missing you guys. Now I must look up Colon and environs and see exactly where you are!! Love Mom/Peg (just got back from Puerto Penasco—4 hours from Tucson, on the Sea of Cortez. A great getaway place in Mexico. We must do it sometime!)

No charges yet. We’ll see what happens because the original delay was due to missing bank paperwork. Maybe they lost it… Free for us??
