The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Tuesday, June 18, 2013. Our godchild Felicia and my brother Marco. Does anybody have an idea how to slow time down? Let me know if you do. I don’t know if it just goes by fast in Panama or anywhere else. My Blog is running further and further away from me so time to catch up on the last several months. After getting back from Costa Rica I had just about 3 days to get ready for my brother and family’s visit from Switzerland. They arrived on the 29. The drive hom...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Monday, September 16, 2013. Ollie the singing Dog. Remember this snake photo? The car now is equipped with spider spray and I don’t park the car next to the bushes anymore. We ordered everything they had that was seafood. It was absolutely delicious! Isla Grande in background. Late lunch or early dinner was at Adriana’s. Now why have we never eaten there before? We ordered anything they had in seafood. It was absolutely delicious! Anniversary (Sept. 8. We made ...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. We left Puerto Lindo at 7 am on the 8. Of November 2014. There wasn’t much of wind but the sun was out and the seas where calm and we motor sailed the 42 miles to Chichime and arrived at 14:00. The trip was uneventful except the dinghy davits let go, but it was an immediate and easy fix. Approaching storm (view to the West). View to the East. Plus the Kuna fishermen deliver Centoyo, monster crab and lobster. Paradise is home and as ...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Monday, October 27, 2014. BROKEN DOWN IN PUERTO LINDO. 8220;What’s Next” seems to be the daily joke for us. How in hell do we get tangled in these kinds of things? Left Puerto Lindo, middle entrance with Mamey island in background, right Isla Linton or Monkey Island. Left Isla Linto, in background Isla Grande, to the right sandy area where new Marina is going to be. During the days we watch caracara falcons and ospreys fish, while the 3 spider monkeys on Isla L...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Thursday, June 12, 2014. We had a very dry “dry season” but it seems like a short one too as torrential rains have started to come in just around 4 in the morning which is the usual pattern here during rainy season. Time to check out the storm wind scoop I made and it works out better than I had hoped for. We don’t have to close the middle hatch anymore during rain unless it is really sever. Here are a few photos of the upgrades made on Paradise:. We figured th...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Friday, April 25, 2014. BACK IN AND ON PARADISE. The view from the other side of the house. We were kind of laughing about this: imagine having found several stolen gas tanks in our yard. Well that didn’t happen, but would have been funny. Melania with Chocolate Facial. Renee washing Salad out of Cindy's hair. The foot massage corner. Yep, still salad in the hair. Oops still in the garage! Good thing is we know now where everything on the boat is LOL. Then when...

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Thursday, July 17, 2014. SAN BLAS WITH JESSE AND LIA. We rented a car 3 days before Lia and Jesse arrived to provision for our 2 week trip to the San Blas. First I thought I over provisioned as I had to store a lot of stuff under the table. But at the end of the trip little was left under the table. And of course a selfi by Lia. The future canal under construction. And these photos are from the prettier part of town. Jesse and Lia with Trash island in background.

Wow I can’t believe Christmas is already knocking on the door, better get you updated on what’s been happening this month:. Then word came that they expected to be in Panama on the 5. So his wife Marsha booked a flight and I picked her up on the 4. It was really great to see her. Last time we was before we left cruising in 1997. In Panama, Mother’s Day is celebrated on December 8.

The cruising adventures of Sid and Manuela. Wednesday, August 28, 2013. MY NIECE STEFANIA'S VISIT. Sid’s dodger project is coming along slowly and slowing down. With the high heat and humidity Sid can only put about 3 hours of work in per day, it gets so hot under the shed he is exhausted for the rest of the day. So the project is on hold for now. But he found a new project: bird patrol! Yep those little martins are out and about to land and poop on any boat in sight. Roberto and Binnie's Sid. We bonded ...
