Gatun Lake Waiting Room

There’s another thing that surprised me was that there was a very large lake, Gatun Lake that served as a sort of waiting room for the ships as they traveled thru the Canal.  Again, the surroundings were very natural, and I wouldn’t know we were in the middle of a canal zone, if I hadn’t paid attention to the passage thru the first set of locks!

Gatun Lake Rainbow

Our cabin wasn’t facing the large part of the lake, but what we did see from the privacy of our cabin balcony, was this rainbow.  There had been a rain shower off the ship and we were rewarded with a lovely rainbow!

End of the Rainbow

It’s not often that I get to photograph the end of a rainbow, but I was lucky enough to capture this!

Enjoy!
