The ants go marching 10x10

And they all go marching down... in the ground. Yes, it's good to be back! Nancy "why not" is visiting for two weeks. We have a great calm day in the bay at Portobelo and yesterday we hiked up the hill at the fort and showed her the amazing leaf cutter ant trails. They are indeed marching on. Up to 7 across.

Captain Morgan did not keel haul me when he saw the amount of luggage I managed to arrive with. Now to make room for it! I enjoyed the brief show and tell with my captive audience. My proudest find was the 3 gallon water jugs. Now to figure out how to arm the auto inflating life jacket.

Immediately after boarding the boat, the wooden ulu stopped by with limes and coconuts. I readily bought some of each. But now I have to watch castaway again because I have no idea how Im going to get the coconuts open. I'm thinking hammer and chisel. I'll let you know how it goes.

Well sorry about the short post. But we got places to go and people to see. Fish to catch. Later gaters
