I had a busy baseball weekend. After getting home later than expected on Friday night, thanks to the hour long rain delay I went home and got a few hours sleep than ran over to Staten Island in the morning for their mini Old Timer’s day which is a nice and cute thing, wasted a few hours and then returned during the evening for some NYPL baseball. As usual, the true highlights were the gigantic ships that passed by.
-
- A massive boat passes by.
-
- Pulled out view of the huge boat.
-
- Another closer look at the boat.
-
- What’s that peaking out behind the stadium??
-
- It’s a HUGE ship!
-
- No really, it’s enormous.
Next day was Old Timer’s Day, where there were no big boats but there were some big fish. I took a lot of pictures (though significantly fewer than last year), so check them all out if you want.
