Nearing the Panama Canal

8:45 am Monday - great weather - will be at sea all day today and enter the Panama Canal sometime around 5 am tomorrow morning.  We have had several time changes - was Eastern at Fort Lauderdale, FL; then an hour earlier when at Aruba yesterday, changed back to Eastern during last night and will be changing again several times before we hit California.


After breakfast this morning we did a lap on deck 3 (actually our lanai) and this is from the aft - looks like we are hauling ass!


Taken from the same spot as photo above.

Our table mate Cheryl - she never drank straight water, always requesting lemons, which she squeezed into the water, and also sweetener which she added generously making Lemonade.

"Paint" by numbers - on the smartphone

 Recent weeks I got into several apps of paint by numbers and Phyllis also picked up on it.  Our phones are tied together, so saved pictures...
