VISIT THE NEW PANAMA CANAL
TODAY I HAD TO FLY BACK TO COSTA-RICA, BUT BEFORE I WENT TO THE AIRPORT ME AND MY GOOD FRIEND DANI VISIT THE NEW PANAMA CANAL ON THE CARIBBEAN SIDE
WHERE THEY USE TRAINS IN THE OLD CHANNEL TO GET THE SHIPS INSIDE
IN THE NEW PANAMA CHANNEL THEY ARE USING TUGS TO GET THE SHIPS INSIDE
IT TAKE ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO GET THE SHIP INSIDE FROM THE MOMENT THAT THE TUGS ARE HOOKED ON
ONCE THEY ARE INSIDE THE DOORS WILL BE CLOSED BEHIND THE SHIP
OVER A LENGTH OF 81 KM (PACIFIC - CAREBBEAN) A SHIP HAS TO DROP DOWN 26 METERS
TO REACH THAT THEY PUMP THE WATER TO THE LEFT LOCATED BASINS
AFTER THEY REACH THE RIGHT LEVEL THE DOORS IN FRONT OF THE SHIP WILL BE OPENED AND THE SHIP CAN GO TO THE NEXT CHAMBER AND THEY START OVER AGAIN
DURING THE WORK BUILDING THE NEW CHANNEL THEY DIG UP STUFF THAT WAS USED MAKING THE FIRST CHANNEL
ALSO AN ANCHOR THAT IS PROBABLY FROM AN AMERICAN WAR SHIP
THIS SHIP HAS TO PAY 200.000 US DOLLAR THE GO TO THE CHANNEL
A LONG TIME AGO AN AMERICAN TOOK A SWIM FOR TEN DAYS TO GO TROUGH THE CHANNEL HE HAD TO PAY 37 CENTS
ALTOUGH THE NEW CHANNEL IS OPEN , NOT EVERYTHING IS FINISHED YET
HAVE A NICE DAY
STEEM ON YOU STEEMIANS
dikke post man. mooi om tezien dat zijn nog eens sluisen

Ja man , heel indrukwekkend om te zien , er was ook een film hoe ze hem gemaakt hebben, die sluizen komen uit Italie
I think everyone should visit Panama!!
200.000$ om door het kanaal te varen?😳 Die moeten nogal verdienen dan?
