The Coral Adventure continues

Well since we last corresponded we have left Aruba and went to Cartagena Columbia, we took the awesome Mangrove canoe tours as well as visited the old city. The history of this place is absolutely amazing. We left Cartagena and held our breath for the reason we took this trip - The Panama Canal - I cannot say anything that would explain just how amazing this was. Not only the amazing sights while going through the canal but the engineering that must have been used. Considering this was completed 100 years ago - it took our breath away. Worth every $$$$ we spent just to see the canal.

Today is a sea day as we are heading for Puntarenas Nicaragua, the temps are pretty high as we are only 7 degrees north of the equator but its great. In Nicaraugua we are going into the jungle area as we will attempt a swinging bridge tour as they put it at the top of the jungle!!!!

The time on the ship has been amazing we met a girl but I am at a loss for her name - something like Nyamia from Grenada, she knew Kellon and spoke of his pics of Megan and Mekhi. We had a great chat with her.

What have we been doing on ships? water volleyball, water Olympics, dancing, sunning, and of course drinking RUM. The most amazing thing is the people we meet from all over the world.

Need to sign off as we are to go to a formal night tonight, seems we have been given the opportunity to have audience with the captain. I have to choose between two ties - this is a tough one , must have another rum.

Oh - forgot to mention in Columbia Homee Dad got an Oh la hat - its cool

signing off from the Cora

Love to all

I just talked to Kellon, that girl's name is Nyasha and she actually gave Kellon $20 before he went home to buy Mekhi a gift. Really nice girl. Kellon wants to know if you've met Geoffrey the Bartender from Grenada.
