Day 7

Arrival, 6 days and 15 hours saw us putting the hook down in the San Blas. Yes a small detour but we had gone far enough ahead of schedule and we really wanted to see this area and meet the Kuna Indians.

The last 36 hours of the trip were a bit different than than anything else. We started with winds at about 8 knots and surfed into the San Blas on 30 knots, squalls and 10 foot seas. We are a little tired and a bit stressed because of needing to thread the reefs in the middle of the night, with no moon due to the squalls. But we are also very happy.

Now back to the cruising life, beaches, beer...... and more beer.
