We did both full transit thui the canal from San Francisco to Fort Lauderdale, it was great and also the partial transit into Gatun lake. While waiting in the lake we had a nice luncheon set up for the Diamond members with some of the crew who ran the ship. Very interesting conversations from our tablemates and the chief engineer who was sitting with us.

We want to go again possibly next year. We both enjoyed the locks, and having a lovely day on our balcony. I brought some asti spumante, and went to the buffet and got a nice plate full of munchies, as we did the transit.

I didn't like going up top where the crowds of people trying to see everything was a little to much for us. Although you do get the best pictures while up there. And there are times duringthe full transit that the crowds thin out.
