Trip of a Lifetime: Part 2

Now we enter the Panama Canal. It was breathtaking in it's beauty. An incredible feat for the men that built it.





Panama Canal entrance from the Pacific side at 5:00 A.M.





The ships behind us entering the first set of locks.





The Bridge of the Americas.





Our ship, the Infinity, tendered in Gatun Lake. We then took off on a side trip.





Boating up the Chagres River in Panama.





More Chagres River scenery. We jumped out of our boat and took a 45 minute walk in the rainforest.





The Gatun Locks. We hung out watching the big ships maneuver their way through.





The Embara Indians of Panama. These people still live the way they did hundreds of years ago.





Aruba!





Dad on our deck as we were leaving Aruba.





One of our last sunsets at sea. We were at sea for 2 days before ending our trip in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

I took over 500 pictures on our cruise and will always have those memories. I'm thrilled that I got to do something such as this for my Dad. Never take for granted that your parents will always be around. Spend as much time as you can with them because you never know what may happen. Do something wonderful for them if you can. Love ya, Dad.
