The Bridge of the Americas

The Bridge of the Americas, (Puente de las Americas) is an enormous bridge which spans the entrance of the pacific side of the Panama Canal. I was fortunate enough to cycle cross the bridge on route to Panama City. You come round the side of a mountain and there it is, right in front of you, a pretty amazing sight, Purnte de las Americas. The bridge spans the entrance to the Panama Canal with all of all the ships. yachts and boats of all sizes, waiting their turn to go through the canal. This was the culmination of a 4000 mile cycle trip which started in Vancouver a few months before, what a way to finish. Breakfast at Balboa yacht club overlooking the Panama Canal was pretty special also.
