Coast Guard Cutter Eagle



Last weekend we were lucky enough to get to go see the only Tall Ship in the Coast Guard fleet.  The Coast Guard Cutter Eagle. It was really a spectacular thing to see.  The boat is amazing! It is like stepping back in time. It boggles my mind to think that people used to sail like this all the time.  The boat was in Philly for a few days so we drove down to Penn's Landing and saw it.  Well worth the  17.00 parking fee!  We actually got a special tour because Jason let the officer of the day know he was active duty Coast Guard.  It was really neat to see where they slept and ate. Here are a few pictures from our trip to Philly! Enjoy!
