Panama Canal

Today was going to be a long day; I could smell it. Not really, it just sounded cool.  Anyway, today we were going to the Panama Canal.  If you don't know what that is, it's like a huge dock, except that it has to go through locks to get to the other side.  If you don't know what locks are, then shame on you.  They are gates holding chambers of uneven water, but before they open, they have to even out the water.  It takes about 9 hours for a boat to get through the entire canal.  So yaaaa.  I don't know why the workers didn't save themselves the hard work and the boringness when they could have had the boats just ride down the uneven water.  That would be RADICAL TO THE MAX!!

 

Anyway, we drove to the canal, bought tickets for like $100 together and went inside the museum. We looked at the history of the canal while a little boy grabbed my butt. Don't say awwww, because it's not cute. Meanwhile a grown woman sneezed in my face. There was a lot to see, besides her boogers. There were 4 floors of the museum alone. We saw dead bugs that the workers had to deal with while making the canal specifically, scorpions, tarantulas, fire ants, the list goes on. Later, we went to see a 30 second movie in 3D. After that, we had a 100 dollar lunch. Since we missed the boats coming in, we waited 3 hours for them. Finally, a little cargo boat came in followed by a huge cruise ship. It was called the Carnival something, I don't know. 

Eventually, we jumped into an unlicensed taxi that took us home without robbing us or worse.

                           Peace out
