The Miraflores Locks Observation Center
Going down to sea level at Miraflores
Panama City in the distance
Canal buildings
An original engine
Locals cheering us onward
Miraflores Station
The gates were still closed
Several pelicans
And many frigates
It was so hot on the bow, you could have fried an egg on it
Our favorite security gal with Raymond, the assistant beverage manager, and a friendly passenger
The mule working
One frigate with one vulture
Leaving the lock
Looks good for over 100
There is a webcam nearby
Field full of pampas grass
New buildings at the expanded Pacific locks
A good vantage point, but oh so hot
Water being dumped
Opportunity for good fishing
A crane and pelican
The final exit
Pair of pelicans
Pelican in flight
Good hunters
Swingspan bridge
Dredge vessel
Balboa
Newly built canal building
A heron
New observation/control tower
Construction of the new locks
Work in progress
Slow, but progressing
Construction
Famous church in the hillsides
Taking shape finally
