Maritime Museum of San Diego

Since we had an extra day in San Diego, we decided to go to the Maritime Museum of San Diego to see some of the old ships that are docked there.

The Surprise

This ship was used in the movie Master and Commander

The Star of India

A Russian diesel electric attack submarine

The Captain
After touring these ships, we headed over to the Navy Base to go see some of the modern ships, then started on the long drive home.
