Panama Canal 2006 Trip Overview

"A vote is like a rifle; its usefulness depends on the character of the user."

Panama Canal Adventure #3 (Third Time Through)

We decided it was time to visit the canal again... specially since we did NOT have to fly to get there!  LA to the Panama Canal and back to LA was perfect!  Nineteen days of pure enjoyment and we met a load of great people, especially the folks on the dance floor!   See the current  temperatureshumiditysatellite view ,   visibility , wind conditions  but remember how hot it was! Generally in the 90's and generally 90% humid!

In our previous passages we did Florida to LA, once by ourselves and once with Aunt Edith and Cousin Kat Robinson.

It Is An Amazing Adventure

Only 100 years ago...

The maps of today are much better

We took over 1400 pictures so we pulled some of them together to remind us of the trip in years to come!
