10/1/2001–Panama

Tomorrow’s the big day!!  We’ve paid all our fees, been measured, bought 3 tons worth of food (just in case they don’t have anything to eat on the other side ).  We have four gigantic lines and ugly tires hanging on our sides.  We conned three of our friends into going with us, we think we’re ready.  If anyone wants to try to spot us going into the first set of locks, here is a link to a web cam:

We don’t really know what time we’ll be going through, though it will probably be between 9 am to noon.  Still have lots to do so this will have to be short.

Cheers,

Carolynn & Tom
