After more than a month ashore, Guppy and I are on Route again. Both Guppy and I enjoy this. A nice wind from astern is blowing us to an average speed of 7 knots [13 kilometres per hour, 8 miles per hour] towards our next destination, the San Blas Islands. Up to now we passed by two cargo ships which were both on a collision course with us. I think they did not see Guppy, so I gave them a call. The first one answered and changed its course. I did not receive an answer from the second one, but by squarely sailing away from its course I escaped that monster too. Today I have spent most of my time watching the sea and the waves. I never get bored of this. I still have about 500 of the 675 nautical miles [926 of 1250 kilometres; 575 of 777 land miles] to go, and I expect to arrive on Saturday or Sunday.
