Six days in Panama--Part 3

Saturday we walked to the subway station, took the subway to Albrook mall and hailed a taxi to take us to the Miraflores Locks on the Panama Canal.  We didn't get to the locks until about 1:00 p.m. so we were a little concerned that there no boats would come through.  But, no worries--we saw four different boats.  Now you know that there are going to be big boats going through the canal, but when you actually see them, you realize they are really BIG!

The first to come through was a container ship.  According to the information we read, the biggest ships that come through can hold 4,500 containers.









Sunday morning we took a taxi to Iglesia Bautista El Dorado--a church that was recommended to us by Ryan Blackstock, a fellow missionary and our small group leader here in El Salvador.
