Queen Mary II in SF

On this holiest of days (Super Bowl Sunday) I took the bold step of dismissing tee-time (thank you to my DVR), and taking my small chimaranian on a walk, rather than watching Super Bowl XVI in real time, so that I might catch a glimpse of the largest cruise ship in the world pull into San Francisco Bay. So right around 3:40, shortly after Ms. Mary was scheduled to sail under the Golden Gate Bridge, Moula and I headed up to Lafayette Park. We meandered through the park, to the wonderful vista point which grants one a view of The Bay, where we were greeted by a crowd of about 15 other interested parties. Realizing that the ship had not yet sailed past our view, I found a seat upon the lawn and waited for about 15 minutes, or so, for the ship to move into view. I waited and waited, but eventually, with no ship in sight, and no other clue as to whether it’s arrive might be imminent, I gave up and continued my walk with the Mutant. I am sad that I missed her arrival, as I am sure it was a breathtaking sight to behold. Queen Mary II in San Francisco Bay
