PANAMA |
The Panama Canal
It was interesting to see
how the canal was functioning so many years after it was build,
and I was impressed. To see those big container ships sailing in,
and being lowerd to the next level in so short time was
facinating. Ships were lined up and the activity was going on all
the time. The visitor senter was nice and you can see more of the
history there too. This is the last port before the ships again
can continue on their voyage over the oceans.
