Panama Canal Photos

    In celebration of the migration north of Cruise Ships headed for Alaska for the summer I have put together a photo tour of the Panama Canal via the Gatun locks. Some of the quality of the photos are a bit bright as I had a problem shooting because the lens of my camera kept fogging up. I did learn one thing though never do a Panama Canal Cruise in June.
