We started our Saturday adventure at the temple. It was a beautiful, clear day. Did you know you can see the Hollywood sign from the street that takes you out of the parking lot? Who knew!!!! It's not a head on view, but you still know what it is. With all the weather we had it looked like the mountains with snow were not that far from Santa Monica Blvd. We went home and changed our clothes. We went to a very late lunch at Olive Garden and then went to Shoreline Village in Long Beach.
This is a picture of the boats docked there. We always sing the Gilligan's Island Theme song when we see this!
After walking around there we decided to go see if there was a Princess Ship docked. There was and it was ready to leave. It was 4:05p.m. We watched it for awhile and then decided to go down the street to Ports O'Call and see it go by. The above ship docked while we were waiting for the Love Boat. It was cool to listen to them shout orders to roll up the sails. There was a little kid up on the highest ropes. It was pretty amazing. Eddie guesses it was a training ship. It was cool to watch!
So, here comes the Sapphire Princess. Well actually the above picture was taken when it was just leaving the dock.
This is the Princess coming around the corner from pier 93!
It was so much fun to watch it and know that in 8 days...we'll be on one just like it!!!
We came home and looked to see where the Sapphire Princess goes...Mexican Riviera! 7 day cruise!!
Our favorite part of it gliding by. See the yellow thing in that open door....
It's a giant hand waving at all the people at Ports O'Call. We laughed so hard.
Eddie wants to be the guy who waves the giant hand on our ship!!!
These are the people on the top of the ship waving at us. People would yell from Port O'Call and the people on the Ship would yell back!!! It was very cool!!! Can hardly wait!!!
I thought I'd take a picture of the lifeboats...not exactly Titanic-esque.
Look how tiny that little boat is next to the big ship!!!
After that we went to Signal Hill. I'd never been there before. When the missionaries first arrive in the California Long Beach Mission, there Mission President takes them and shows them the view and says...This is your mission area!!! It's really cool. The sun was going down, so I want to go back early one morning, especially on a clear day to see the sites!!!
The Boeing plant and Long Beach airport.
It was getting a little chilly so we didn't walk the Panorama Promenade, but we will next time! It was a great adventure!!!
