Traversing the Panama Canal (2023)
Index
SF-Miami
Nov 2023
We awoke early since we were told that we knew our journey through the canal would begin before 6 AM
There were ships on the opposite side heading west
Bridges carry traffic over the Canal

The bow camera on TV gave us an
excellent forward view of our progress

 

 

 

In about an hour we were approaching Pear Lake


We sailed into Gatun Lake
We were here in 1994
The final lock going into the Caribbean

On our way to Cartagena, Colombia
This is our only view of the city since we were still in Quarantine
