pretty neat place. took a bus up to the miraflores locks, closest to the city, 15min bus ride, and has a nice visitors center. got there midday, went through the museum/vistor's center for a good bit. at first, only saw two small passenger vessels, the kind where you pay $125 for lunch and a short tour on the canal. museum had how was it built, how does it affect shipping/transport/panamanians... also had a new section explaining the expansion. very nice restaurant attached to the visitor's center, had a drink and watched some college football as the bigger ships made their way to the locks. they tend to come through around 3-5pm for some reason.
also took a long walk around the city in the morning. very interesting city with lots of new buildings going up. suppose to be the next costa rica, though san jose is not nearly as developed as this city.
