Lake Gatun, Panama.

On my bucket list for some time, I finally completed a cruise through the Panama Canal. Who would have guessed there might be an element of danger? While traveling through one of the lakes that make up part of the canal system, a barge pushing another barge caught my attention. I didn’t need a lesson in Spanish to understand the sign, or why the red building was on its own barge as far as possible away from the barge wheelhouse.

This week, Michelle W. asks us to share a photo that implies Danger! Per Michelle’s instructions, I will include italics and exclamation points! You can read the entire challenge post here.

Here’s a cropped closeup of the dangerous barge. Happy sailing!
