Canal Time!

It was time to transit the Canal through to the Caribbean on a typical panama day, grey and torrential downpours on and off. An amazing achievement of engineering and plain hard work, the best parts were fishing in the lake at the centre of the canal where there are apparently plenty of monkeys and even the odd mountain lion as its in the dense jungle and very hard to access. The trains which act as bow & stern line pullers and the shear proximity of the mondo panama cargo carriers going past you all over the place. The transit down was done in the dark to add another perspective to the canal.

Check out the photos for a play by play.
