Mule on the Panama Canal

This morning, we went to the Miraflores Locks on the Panama Canal.  The first ship that passed was a supership and went through the new, larger locks.  It was at a distance, and we could only see the top of the hull and the containers on the deck.  Still quite impressive.

Then a tug and an auto carrier ship passed through the original locks which were right in front of us.  The main image is a mule steering the big ship through the locks.  

I have included several extras so you have a better feel of the entire operation.
