In Cartagena, Colombia, we have gone on board and we went step by Luises. It really is a beautiful city with very nice people and a lot of monitoring. And mafia, says the Luises. This was confirmed when we wanted to settle; instead of the agreed $ 23 turned out to be 36. Without batting an eyelid, or sat 't in the extra ice we asked for? The Panama Canal was something special. After a day of anchor located (peacefully) we left at 5 o'clock in the morning towards the locks. In the distance we saw the lights It smelled delightfully fresh and the sounds were unknown to us and very mystical.; the sounds of the rainforest. With small silver locomotives we were revoked the locks, we on both sides but a foot space held. 3 locks on, the more and four hours later three locks down and the Pacific was there. Very nice, not just 'our' forecastle (we found 't been our land), but also from the bridge. The pilot (pilot) we still have 't know one another and to tell us and pointed to a real crocodile. In the moonlight we are on the "wings" of the bridge under the Puente (Bridge) de las Americanas by dangers and we left Panama behind us.
