Gatún, Colón, Panama
Gatún, Colón, PanamaBus ride to Colón: from Pacific to Atlantic; 1 1/2 hours; $3.15.
I had read about Colón not being a great place; 100% agree.
The visit to Esclusas de Gatún was about what I expected; nice to see it in person though, for only $5.
Got a few sprinkles while I was there.
When I decided to leave, I went to the bus stop: they had a schedule posted, and a bus left about every hour. As I lifted my eyes, a bus pulled up! It started to rain as we pulled away.
The last few pics were of ships waiting to go through to the Atlantic.
Got back to Colón in 40 min, and the same, comfortable, bus I came in on was first in line for Pty.
All in all, not a bad day.
