We've just cleared the Pedro Miguel lock on the Pacific side of the canal. It is a 1 lock, 31 foot drop. In conjunction with the Miraflores locks (2 of them) we're dropping 26 metres back to sea level. We started the journey at about 6.30 this morning. It's now 3pm. It takes between 8-10 hours to traverse.
The humidity here is amazing. We have had condensation issues on camera lenses. Luckily though, it's been partially overcast most of the day. It's kept the temperature down.
Lots of pictures today. Rich actually said "I think this is more interesting and fun than tunnels!" And trust me, for Rich, that's saying something.
