I usually shy away from all of the tourist type destinations in and around San Diego. Since I've been doing these tiki bar parties, I've gone to many places that I would never go to otherwise . I went to one such place yesterday to set up a bunch of huts, bars, and tikis...

On the deck of the aircraft carrier Midway

They decommisioned the ship and turned it into a museum.

We had to load our stuff into the basket on the forklift. then it was placed on the ship's elevator. From there, it was raised to the flight deck.

We had to wait for the pepsi guy and the heinekin guy load their stuff. While I was waiting, i checked out the ship. It was early and it was still closed. There was no supervision, so I went behind all the ropes and climbed into all the stuff that said no access.
This is San Diego skyline from the flight deck:

Looking south towards the Coronado Bay Bridge

The Bali Hai is back there, to the right and behind the ship...

There were all kinds of planes and stuff on the deck:



The party was a Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville blowout


I put the picture of the tiki here to justify this post on TC.
Look at the tiki!

I put all this up here so that people will not have to come to San Diego. You'd hate the traffic. It costs alot of money too...
