With thanks to Opposaurus for reminding me, here’s some photos from a trip to San Diego from a while back...

Apologies for the ipotato photo quality, I’ll plan better next time. I’d like to thank all the USS Midway sailors for their service, and a special thanks to the veteran volunteers who keep her afloat for future generations to see and touch.

First of all, don’t apologize for the photos. They look great. Second, I’ve stayed in San Diego more than once in the sight of that ship, and never managed to get on board. It has become a definite bucket list item.

These ships are awesome. The thing that amazed me most is how much thick steel was everywhere. I want to think they shouldn’t be able to float.

We saw her almost 5 years ago (hard to believe it’s been that long) but we didn’t go aboard. Roman Abramovich had his punt parked close by.
