Welcome to our bumper episode as we transit through the Panama Canal from the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean. It was an incredible day with an early start but we are so grateful to everyone who helped us tackle the seventh modern wonder of the world and arrive safely on the other side in our little floating home.

We are so proud of how far we’ve come - we hope you enjoy this one!
