In March 2010, we sailed from Cartagena, Colombia to the San Blas Islands in Central America, enroute to Panama and the Panama Canal. The islands are inhabited by the Kuna Indians and are a very popular stop over for cruising boats heading for the Canal and onwards across the Pacific Ocean, as well as boats coming down from the Americas who spend considerable time here. There are a large number of good safe anchorages and basic supplies can be obtained from some of the larger towns in some of the islands. The Kuna indians love to come to the boats in their dugout canoes, selling their 'mola's as well as fresh fruit, vegetables, fresh bread rolls, fish, crabs and lobsters in season. We had a great time here, very easy to relax and enjoy the islands and their people. Highly recommend a visit. A glimpse of our time there can be viewed at the following link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuqOQlF9BPo

Did someone object to your singing?

Hi mate, no they didnt object to my singing but the song that I chose for the backing was objected to and had to select a random backing, not what I wanted but at least there is some sound now!
