Last Saturday we got to go visit the Star of India, a sailing ship kind of similar to that which the pioneers sailed on. This is us with the Star of India in the background.
To see the Star of India, you buy a ticket to the San Diego Maritime Museum which includes several boats including the HMS Surprise, which was used in the filming of the movie "Master and Commander."This is Chris steering the ship into battle.
This is me actually steering the ship from below deck.Below is Chris's favorite part of the museum, the Russian sub.
So this is one of the coolest symbols I think I've ever seen. Don't get too close or lightning will come out of your head and hand (who knew?).

that warning sign is awesome!
OOo. The Maritime Museum didn't have the sub last time I was there. Cool.
My littlest sis' was running along the deck of the Star of India, when she tripped and scraped her knee. When school started again she wrote a very funny story (third-grade style) entitled: The Scar of India.
Wow! Nice pics. It made me miss you guys and the museum (in that order of course).
Next time we visit, we've gotta go there. On that DisneySub site I work with, they had a bunch of members get together a couple of months ago when the Maritime Museum did their mock battles out in the Bay. I wanted to go, but alas, work & money foiled me again...
Someday, we'll all have to go.
