Jungle Boat

We were sure we were going to meet the Jungle Boat today. Dutifully, we hopped on the Jungle Bus and ground gears down to the marina. We all got life preservers and hopped on. We were all surprised to see it was a regular boat. We headed out onto Lake Gatun past huge container ships, dredging rigs and little islands. Our driver and guide led us to Howler Monkeys, iguanas, sloths, a baby caiman and a snail hawk. It turned out to really cool and being beside those ships was awe inspiring. Here are a few shots. Notice the baby crocodile on the branch and the leaf cutter ants with flowers.
