Hola (Greetings) from Panama!

Our grand ship, National Geographic Orion, passed through the famous locks of the Panama Canal today, crossing from the Pacific Ocean into the Gatun Lake. We anchored to await our turn to cross through the second lock into the Atlantic Ocean.

Guests enjoyed the morning with various tours offered within the area, including hikes and Zodiac cruises. We spotted many varieties of birds along with monkeys and crocodiles. A great day was had by all as we awaited our turn to pass through the last lock before entering the Caribbean Islands. Cheers!
