At the moment, we are in Shelter Bay Marina, Panama, waiting for our Panama Canal transit date. The marina is nice, with a pool and a restaurant, but probably one of my favorite things about it is Lucky! He’s a sweet mixed breed dog, about three or four years old who appeared at the marina about a week and a half ago. Someone put a red bandanna around his neck, and he is so cute! Some of the people who are on their boats here decided to call a vet for him, and the vet came and neutered him and treated a cut paw. Lucky seemed a lot better afterwards! Nowadays he trots all around the marina, stopping to say hi to most people he sees, although he doesn’t seem to like men. He sleeps on an old towel and blanket in the barbeque hut, or, as the sign hanging from the ceiling says, the Cruisers Palapa. It’s a huge concrete rectangle with a roof and a fireplace, and picnic tables where people gather for potlucks and barbeques. He often sleeps beneath the picnic tables. (There are about six. So, plenty of variety!) Lucky was dubbed Lucky by all the smaller blond kids (there are at least four other kidboats here and all of them younger than us and blond). At the moment, he’s waiting for a friend of the vet to adopt him. They are picking him up in a couple of days. I’ll miss seeing Lucky around the marina, but I’m glad he getting a home.
