Tiger cruise!

Today I meet up with my son aboard the USS XXX in sunny San Diego and will spend the next 6 days under water as we head to the home port of XXX! it is called a Tiger Cruise by the Navy and to get invited is pretty special. Can't take a camera and phones with cameras or recording Apps will be taken upmfor the trip so no pictures to follow but I will post a trip report after of what I can.

If you Google: Trident II d5 missile launch San Diego, there is link to the test that the sub did yesterday.

Did not know Tiger cruises were on submarines. Or were that long.

When you go on a cruise, isn't there supposed to be sun?

Well, you must tell us what it is like to go down on a vessel full of seamen.

Well, the people are interesting, being a pretty sharp bunch with a lively sense of fun. The view is the thing that sucks.

The surface Navy enjoys those dawns and sunsets regular-like; not so the subbies.
