I love boats, big boats, little boats, ships and barges, if it floats I enjoy it. Well there is one exception, I am not terribly fond of sail boats, when I want to go someplace I want to go and not be at the mercy of the winds on how to get there. When I travel I enjoy harbor tours, ferry-boats and other ways of getting out on the water and seeing the place from a different point of view. This was taken someplace on a harbor tour in Norfolk, Virginia. Someday, maybe I will own a boat. I only had one Aunt and Uncle, when I was growing up they lived on a lake about 40 miles away and they had a couple of boats, a classic early 1960's power boat - complete with fins, and a row boat. I always enjoyed visiting them in the summer and taking a ride on the lake.

Harbor Tours

I had a small sail boat that I sailed a lot when I was 11 to 14. Then we moved from SC and nearby water to WV, and I wound up getting a canoe. Then a kayak. All that being said, I, too love boats, and touring on them, and diving from them. Not sure if I want to take a cruise on one of those floating cities, but I like ferries, the "ducks" in Boston, and all sorts of stuff like that!

I've been on the harbor tour in Norfolk. Okay, so it was like.. 40 years ago. Someday I'll get back home for a visit :)
ReplyDeleteI like boats too. I grew up with them, so they are full of fond memories. Next weekend I visit the parents and I hope we go a-boating.
