I took this picture to compare the Old and the New.

I always hope to learn a bit of cultural or scientific dirt during our brief sojourns landward. And Long Beach did not disappoint.  Less than 3000 feet from our marina was the Aquarium of the Pacific.  Lets just say our new, annual membership to the aquarium was well used during the six days we were docked in LB.  After tearing me away from the aquarium, Ren and Elliot insisted we tour the cruise ship I've been looking at out of my porthole for the past week (Left:  My porthole and the RMS Queen Mary, aka the "Grey Ghost").  All week the kids got a kick out of the timely, and loud, blast of Queen Mary's horn every morning, afternoon and evening.
