Air & Sea Show
This past weekend I was in the living room of the apt, when I looked out the window. I noticed that there was a whole bunch of boats out on the water. There’s the usual ferries that scurry up and down the water way. There’s also cargo ships that go by everyday. There’s even huge cruise ships that we see most days. We also see smaller private boats. But this Saturday, when I looked out I saw a lot more than usual. A lot more private ships, and also what looked like coast guard type looking boats.
So I stopped and just looked at it for a while. It was kinda cool to see all the activity going on. It was also a nice day. Yea I know….how unusual. (Eye rolling smilie goes here) As I stood there and looked out, I kept seeing more and more boats. It turns out, they were having some sort of air & sea show thingy. Kinda cool since I had a great view right out my window.
After a while this helicopter flew by. It made a circular pass around the bay. Then it came around again, and just hovered in place. It just stayed there for a few mins. It was cool to just watch it stay there motionless. Then all of a sudden the door opened, and 2 people jumped out. After a few seconds, the copter takes off. It does another circular fly by. Then it comes back, and hovers over the 2 people now in the water. They lowered a line out of the copter to the water. The 2 people get strapped in, and were hoisted up and into the helicopter, and it flew away. I guess it was just for show, for the on lookers. Anyway, I grabbed a shot. Here it is.
