Me and The Carnival Splendor Cruise Ship


Me and The Carnival Splendor Cruise Ship

This is the infamous ship which has made world-wide news for being stranded off of Baja California, Mexico due to a fire...with thousands of people on board. It had to tugged back to San Diego for repairs. It is so tall it cannot fit under the Coronado Bridge which is 200ft/62meter tall at its highest point. Photo taken from Coronado Island on Nov. 27, 2010.

Luaram:

It is still very unusual to have such cold temps at night here at this time of year. It would actually even be considered well below normal for the middle of January.
