Was down in Panama last week checking out the surf and this incredible feat of mankind. The Panama Canal took 10 years and 250,000 people to complete back in 1910!
These boats are raise and lowered over 150 feet and run 24/7 365 days a year.
Check out this Timelapse video of a ship going through!
We are in Holland America cruising last year and my husband first bucket list is to see the Panama Canal.
Excellent experience of the changging and opeining of the canal . Must see ,
This photo is great. I would like to personally meet the Panama Canal. thanks for sharing.
"Hey fellas...tired of going around South America?....yeah me too."
Shortcuts. Inspiring innovation since the caves.
Visiting to see it for myself is still on my bucket list... One Day, One Day!
P.S. Thanks for the cool time-lapse.
@braaiboy you should definitely check it out, but Panama City is pretty whack, definitely go to the islands or coast line somewhere out of the cities. Basically mini America
Cool... thanks for the tip!
Great time lapse shot! The canal really is a major feat of engineering. Must be exciting seeing it in real life.
