The Festival of Sail begins in San Diego today. The ships start parading in to the harbor statrting at 10am. I'll do my best to sneak upstairs and catch
some photos.
This pic was taken yesterday at 330pm - the Embarcadero is all set up with the vendor tents, with the HMS Surprise and the Berkeley in the background...

I've been looking forward to this!
Thanks for being our spy, Jess. Try not to get caught on your mission.

Well, I think I'll have a lot of company as I sneak up to the 4th floor balcony...everyone's all excited about it. But I'll be going across the
street during my lunch breaks every day and I'll be taking all kinds of pictures and then I'll be there all day Sunday. The Surprise will be sailing
the harbor participating in the cannon battles, so I'll try to get some pics of that...

Okay. Day One of the San Diego Tall Ship Festival...
The ships started coming in around 1030AM. I snuck up to the 4th floor cafeteria balcony and snapped a few images: The U S Coast Guard's Eagle can be seen getting a tow into the harbor on the right....but look off towards the center foreground...that's the HMS Surprise sailing!

The contrast between the warship of yesteryear and of today is extraordinary, isn't it?
Amazing that so many men lived and fought on such small fragile craft. 
Looking forward to the next set of pics, Jess!

Here's a few more from this morning - we had a thick marine layer until about 1130AM or so. It looks like it was chilly, but it was quite warm and
humid....
Star of India's sails and masts... 
These two are of the Pilgrim...

kept looking for Capt. Jack to come walking along..lol Would be fun to know Jess' reaction if he had. I've already got a hawk screaming outside of my window that sounds remarkably like a seagull....Maybe I should turn on my fan for breeze and mix up some
salt water for smell ..(I will however skip adding the faint aroma of dead fish)

Well, I did see a rather cute looking pirate walking along the Embarcadero yesterday, along with a whole bunch of really cute Coast Guard fellas...I'll be
out there again tomorrow with Riley and Natalie, so 'll have a whole bunch of last day photos to share. I haven't taken a tour of any of the ships yet
as I've been saving that adventure for tomorrow.
