To celebrate the devoted Mr. Garland's 39th birthday today, we headed to the San Diego Maritime Museum. The museum consists of 5 boats floating in the SD harbor.

S and J inside the B-39 Soviet Attack Submarine. Talk about close quarters. What's that circle thingy J is sitting in? It's a
door that we all had to climb through. Let's just say that I'm not as graceful as I might look (ha!). At 6'1" (and Jeff's 6'7"!), we had to fold in half (and bring Z along as well). You can just call us the family of smooth moves.

Our snack aboard the Berkeley (steam ferry) - what an amazing ferry! This was probably our favorite boat. We watched the other ships in the bay, as well as airplanes taking off and landing at the airport. Excitement all around.

Looking out the Star of India's porthole at the HMS Surprise. About 3 of the ships were out sailing today.

Jeff and Z on top of the sub with the
Star of India in the background. The
Star of India is the oldest active ship in the world. It was built 145 years ago (1863), when Abe Lincoln was president.
