YouTube Video Description

Hey Cruisers! It's day six of our Caribbean Princess Panama Canal cruise, and I am up bright and early to catch our first pass through the Panama Canal locks. We found out early on that this was a really long and slow process. So instead of having hours of probably boring footage we have opted to use time-lapse for the majority of our passage through the canal. Sadly, the video quality does suffer a bit in that the results are quite shaky, but we couldn't think of a better way to show the trip through the locks. I'll give you a bit of information about the Panama Canal, and how the Panama Canal locks work as we show the time lapse footage. After we make our fist pass through the locks we will spend some time in Gatun lake. There are some great photo opportunities here, and since quite a few people have booked excursions, it's a great time to explore the ship. I took this opportunity to find a better viewing area for our trip back through the locks. Through out our Caribbean Princess cruise we had been wanting to try the Ernesto Burger at the new Salty Dog restaurant, but we found out that it takes 25 minutes or more to prepare the burger. Now that the ship is half empty, and we've got lots of time, we'll head over to the Salty Dog and do a little burger research. You've got to see this burger to believe it! We round out this vlog with a little footage of an amazing, but limited port where we will pick up the cruise passengers that had booked excursions. Thanks for watching our Panama Canal cruise video. Be sure to check back soon. We'll be post video from our stop in beautiful Limon soon.
