While I'm thinking of it, the best time to go to the Miraflores Locks at the Panama Canal is about 1pm. "Rush hour" (there will be about 4 or 5 ships in a row headed to the Pacific side) is just after 2pm so it will give you time to go through the interpretive center/museum then settle in to watch the ships go through.

To see the new larger expanded locks you have to go to Colon on the Atlantic side. The Agua Clara locks have a more modest set up for viewing but it's still pretty good. It's about $90 to Uber there. Far less than Ubering across Canada.

If you get a car, you can drive a bit further past Miraflores to the Pedro Miguel locks and park along the fence and join the locals in watching the ships go through those locks for free.
