Charleston, Post-Turkey Day

The bulk of our day was spent on the water, kinda. We toured the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum, a tour largely composed of visiting the submarine SS-343 Clamagore, destroyer DD-724 Laffey, Coast Guard cutter Ingham and the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown.

In the early evening, we had dinner at a Mexican restaurant before returning to the hotel. [livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr had a hankering for ice cream so we slipped around the corner for the largest servings of ice cream I've ever seen... I'm going to be vibrating with a sugar rush all night. Whee!

Photos will be up on my web site eventually... here's a handful to whet your appetite.

nice pix - the one of [livejournal.com profile] kent4str is excellent. That's the sorta picture you want on your desk at work. (I've never met [livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr in person, so I can't vouch for his.)

What's up with the glasses??

And Michael looks MUCH better than he does in that photo from your (or Kent's?) Christmas party you sent us last year. Must be something in the DC air...

Those're my driving and low-light glasses (things are just a little clearer with them, I'm still legal to drive without them), and we were going in and out of ships all afternoon, so I just left them on.
