the first time in 8 years we were not allowed to leave the harbour of cartagena
this morning...the traffic was restricted because of bad visibility. there is no
fog here but is was raining a little bit and maybe dirty windows at the control
tower....who knows?

finally we could leve the harbour after half an hour waiting and it really
started to rain and the visibility got bad for a moment...ha ha ha!

we are 10 persons on board and the swiss took over the ship as 6 are swiss.
that seems to be a luxury cruise...especially for the crew as there is not so
much to cook and clean! quite good as the crew did hard work these days to paint
the complete hull and a lot of things have been repaired and maintained.
the stove was given away for a big maintenance and renewal and we got it back
yesterday afternoon....it really looked good first....so shiny;) and then after
installing it turned out to be completely destroyed. gas came out evreywhere gas
should better not come out from and some parts missed and others were completely
deformed...funny thing!
we had to call the guys from that company back to the ship and they worked from
6pm to midnight to get at least all fires working....rest of the demages next
time in cartagena!

now the weather is rainy but calm and course is set to coco bandero! seeya
