Panama Canal

On May 4, 1904 the U.S. began construction and completed the project in 1914 at a cost of approximately $387 million.  It takes about 9 hours to transit the canal, a distance of 45 nautical miles.

We have been through 5 times prior to this trip and must have taken 500 pictures.  This time was no different.  We were on deck from 10:30 AM until 6:00 PM.  It is an awsome experience and we are truly amazed each time we transit.  As soon as I sort my pictures I will try include them in these posts.
