Today the doors to the Caribbean Sea literally closed behind us. We’ve gone through the first three locks of the Panama Canal and are now moored to a big bouy in the Gatun Lake. After weeks of absolutely NO wind, Mother Nature blessed us with 15-25 knots of wind while going through the canal. Of course.. Don’t miss the last photo of @sisseltherkildsen who had to jump on the bouy to secure our lines, after a bit of a last minute brief from our advisor. Life is always eventful onboard Lulu Tao..🥲 Tomorrow morning we’ll get a new advisor onboard before making our way across the lake, to the last three locks. A big chapter has closed and the Pacific Ocean is waiting for us.💕
