January 09: Panamal Canal
We spent all day going through the 6 locks on the Panama Canal- 3 to get in and 3 to get out. In the middle was Gatum lake which was made when they built the locks. All the land was flooded, and only the high points were lest as islands. The weather was beautiful- hot, humid & sunny. In the morning they served ' panama buns'. We each had one- Dad had 3! (<- Editors Note: What a Pig!) They are filled with a sort of cream, and resemble donuts, but are more like a bread bun, if you can imagine that. Dad was fascinated by the canal and had a blast all day long.
