As a part of my job this past week, I got to go on a tour of some pretty amazing ships. In particular the USS Gonzalez (an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer), the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (a Nimitz-class supercarrier), and also a sub. I even got a good picture of myself in the Captain’s chair on Ike. Wikipedia can better describe the ships than I can, so I’ll let you look at some of the pictures from the day. (Thanks to Jared for letting me use his pictures!)

very shiny. I also wish I could visit such crazy places, but alas. Apparently the sub doesn’t have a name…

It seems somewhat appropriate that Gonzalez is a destroyer.
