Tom got up at five am in order to get a couple of front row seats in the observation lounge which is on the top deck.  We started through the first lock at about 7 am.  I pulled up the canal live web camera on my tablet and we were able to watch our ship go through the first set of locks at Gatun.  It is now 10 am and we are in Gatun Lake waiting to make our way out through the Miraflores Locks at about 4pm this afternoon.
