Panamaniac

It's been a while since I watched the Panama Canal webcam. A friend of mine has pointed me in the direction of a compilation of stills - a week of activity stitched into eleven minutes. Amongst the stream of Panamaxes shuttling through, there's a few liners and a couple of yachts. But mostly you get the idea that modern ships are ugly ugly ugly.

My son's final day of school today. It wasn't that long ago I used to walk him to and from, holding his chubby little hand. ***SIGH***

Next year he's off to college, maybe university afterwards.

That video is incredible. I never really thought about the Panama Canal before.

My mom is taking a cruise through the Panama Canal the day after Christmas.

The webcam operators often have fun with the cruiseliners, zooming in to look for pretty women. I'm sure your mum is gorgeous!

And cruise ships usually have their own webcams. I occasionally watch a cruiser approach, hunt up the webcam and watch the same event from two angles.

Such a nerd!

Just saw the video

Totally awesome. I shall have a look at the live site at work tonight when it is day time there. 2am in PAnama is pretty boring! :) Thanks Pete for the great link
