Great bridge shots! I missed it live. It is cool to think that was the same ship as in Halifax (which seems like years ago.)

I've got 63 pics saved of the event if anyone wants them PM me w/ your e-mail address and i'll e-mail them to ya. They're 13-15kb each. Kinda cool clicking through them to get a mini video feed.

But, keep watching out for him. I am trying to help my son with homework and can't pay full attention to the locks.
