Got stuck halfway to shore for a bit, but then I suddenly saw which way to go and quickly swam the rest of the way. Nice one! Happy New Year to all!

Confidently jumped off the Lido deck into the water, swam a bit, treaded water for a bit and FINALLY made it to the beach and my favorite tiki bar. Nicely constructed, Mike! Happy New Year to all muggles everywhere!

To shore quickly on this one. Fun!
Now as for this week's PGWCC ... hopelessly lost at sea!

early at the bar, plenty of time to get ashore.
Four Hands Absence of Light please (their seasonal peanut butter chocolate milk stout, it's amazing).

That's the toughest one we've had for a while, IMHO! Fantastic puzzle to end the year!

Ashore! I had an easier time with this one than some of the recent puzzles, though I wouldn't exactly call this one a gimme.
About 45 minutes ago I was pretty sure I had it, but was actually on the wrong shore. I had a solution that I was going for which wasn't correct, but I still expect a few people to submit it. Fortunately the correct shore was close by.
