Enjoying The Canal Before We Leave

Friday, August 23
After the radio show we went to the Miraflores locks on the Panama canal where we ate lunch at a restaurant that overlooked the Canal. It was an awesome experience because we enjoyed an unbelievable buffet as we witnessed international commerce utilizing one of the wonders of the modern world.

Here comes the first ship

Two at once

Gates of the locks opening to let ship through

It's a tight fit as big as these ships are

Trying to give you a perspective of how massive the ships are

These guys are the orange dots in the previous picture

We leave in the morning on a 9:55 am flight back to Houston. Hope to be back soon to such a spectacular country.
