Review summary

We missed Costa Rica due to late departure and stopping for Haitian migrants. The pool was like a sauna because the retractable roof was broken. It rained in Panama and Curaçao.And they charged for lobster which never happened before on Gala night. They charged over $320 Canadian for a 75 minute massage!! Otherwise we had a good time.

Cruise Gatun Lake (Inside Panama Canal)

Yes. A disaster. Went on a small boat to view the monkeys. Saw 4 monkeys and got soaked for the privilege. The boat tarp roof leaked and no rain coats were offered. Had to sit sopping on a bus for over an hour on the way back to the ship in Colon. Not pleasant!
