Tacoma Tall Ships


Posted by Picasa
This morning we set out from Zittel's Marina in Olympia to check out the Tall Ships coming into port in Tacoma. Here are a few of our pics of the many ships we saw. The weather was a little cool and rainy...c'mon it's July 3rd... where's summer?? After we started watching the ships come in and we sat in the boat, I started to get sea sick. The water was pretty choppy from ALL the boats in the bay looking at the Tall Ships. We took a little cruise north and saw the CGC Eagle, a really cool Coast Guard sailing vessel (Andreas' favorite)! Then we came back and saw more of the ships in the bay and I was really, really sick so we only stayed a bit longer and then headed back towards Olympia. My favorite was the HMS Bounty, it looks like a pirate ship and in fact was built for the movie "Mutiny on the Bounty" and also used in Pirates of the Carribbean II and Sponge Bob Square Pants! The girls had a great time, too! They are good crew members since their momma is a "land lubber!"

Can you print this collage? That would be so neat if you could print it and frame it!
