Panama Canal

Today we went down the Panama Canal from the Pacific to the Caribbean.

We had quite a few people on our balcony for the day as we went through.


Approaching the Bridge of The Americas

Large Container Ship going through the new locks

Our lock was the one on the right

Ship on the other canal in the new locks

Being hauled through

Where they have competitions for rope throwing

Lock ahoy

Spectator area with old train in background

Taking it easy ...

A deep lock!

Leading marks

Waiting for passing passengers ..

Double locks with large grain bulk carrier

Finally some Ukulele plating as we sailed along!
