Hi guys. It was an awesome time. We waited 'til the crowd left, then tagged-along with an Ensign and his family. Got into CIC and on the bridge, even Officer's country.... Where they keep the sword of Admiral Dewey, from the battle of Manila Bay. Because of the tsunami earlier in the week they had to run her out to sea with a 'skeleton crew' of barely 100! she had only 6 ft. of water under her lowest point, then experienced a 30-degree roll at sea, according to her crew.  

Great shots ;)

Glad that Wombat_1 and Chili had a good time.  Look forward to your pics and comments.  We drove by and there was a lot of people and law enforcement.  Wife snapped a couple shots from PCH.

Yes it sure is invitation only. Got my invitation. Tickets will be mailed out soon. I will have 3 extra tickets if anyone is interested.

PM sent (I hope, I had issues with the spam filter)   ???.  If you didn't get it, I'm interested in a ticket if they're still available.   :)

This is an invite only.  You may be able to get shots from the bridge area, probably on foot or bike on PCH, otherwise probably not.
