Colombian ship Capitan Miranda, a tall ship among the warships at the pier, alongside JFK, Eithne & Intrepid.

This unrepentant Ukranian bastard played some wicked accordian (in full cossack regalia) at the strategically placed tourist kiosk next to the Ukranian tall ship.


This helicopter rescue was staged by the Navy SEALs to divert the attention of the thousands of folks queued up to get aboard the JFK and the Intrepid. I think it worked. At first, we thought we were being invaded.


I was lucky enough to catch a Navy stunt dude taking a dive from a passing helicopter. I was also lucky enough to be standing behind his mother.


A Navy flight simulator at the Intrepid museum. Is it just my imagination or does that guy in front of it look like he wants to kick my ass?


As this Canadian warship past (I didn't know Canada had war ships either...surprise!) the sailors took the time to salute their Evil Overlord. (Still think I'm messing? Look at the close up. Flag's unmistakeable)


People queue up to board the Equadorian ship at the Seaport.


The biggest Equadorian flag I've ever seen in my life. That ain't saying much as it's also the ONLY Equadorian flag I've ever seen in my life. But hey, it IS still one big ass flag.
