Docking at the Cruise Ship Pier in San Diego
I got up very early this morning, not only to take pictures of our arrival, but also to make some phone calls and check my email, since we have been in range of both of them starting about five in the morning. Fred slept a little later but joined me on deck around six.
Fred took quite a few pictures as we came into the harbor and as the sun came up; I've selected a sequence of those pictures to include here. Just click on the thumbnail images below to have a look at them:
When the light got bright enough, Fred stitched together one of his panoramic views of the San Diego harbor, and you can use the scrollable window below to have a look at it:

I made a movie this morning as we were completing the docking process here in San Diego, and you see our surroundings both here at the dock and also by downtown. |
Waiting to Disembark
While we were occupied below decks, the "Radiance of the Seas" came in to the dock beside us. This was the same ship that we had seen day before yesterday anchored near us in Cabo San Lucas. It must have been in front of or behind us all day yestereday, although we didn't see it as I recall. As the light was getting better, there were better views of downtown San Diego.
As usual, Fred took some excellent pictures while we were waiting, and you can see some of them if you click on the thumbnails below:
I made another movie when we were having breakfast that also shows the "Radiance of the Seas" having docked next to us. |
We Disembark and Our Cruise Comes to an End
Since I was occupied with the rental car, it was Fred who took our pictures of the activity around the pier, and also some pictures from the rental car after I'd returned and picked everybody up. I have put thumbnail images for the best of these pictures below, so click on those images to have a look at the last group of pictures from our cruise. (You might peruse the first picture at least and see if you can spot one of my pet peeves.)

This was a wonderful cruise, and we enjoyed it immensely. I hope you enjoyed following along with us on it.
