Norwegian Bliss Panama Canal Transit Time Lapse

[NMG318]

I posted a YouTube time lapse video of the transit of the Panama Canal aboard the Norwegian Bliss enroute from Los Angeles to Miami (13 November 2018).  I put three pictures at the beginning of the video that I took as we went under the Bridge of the Americas.  We went thru at low tide in order to clear the bridge.  We were told that we were going to go under at 0330 but we ended up going under at 0240.  Fortunately I got up at 0130 and went up on deck.  I use to live in Panama and crossed over that bridge hundreds of times and did not want to miss going under.  There were a lot of people not happy that they missed it.

Excellent time-lapse!  Thanks for sharing.  Perhaps some day I'll do a PC cruise in one of the mega ships that have to use the new locks.  To be honest I think the old locks with the locomotives (mules) are much more interesting.

Thanks for making it clickable.  I thought that would happen automatically.
