USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN NAVY SHIP TOUR A HIT IN SAN PEDRO CALIFORNIA

Supercarrier USS Abraham Lincoln CVN 72 was one of four navy ships that thousands of people visited, standing in line for hours in the heat to get aboard. We were two of them. (This is an older video but we wanted you to see what the ship looks like.) Perhaps the event planners didn't expect such a huge patriotic turnout. We were sun burned and dehydrated by the time we got home.

It was a historical event, the first time any navy ships have docked in San Pedro, Port of Los Angeles in many years. This ship usually goes between San Diego and Washington state. It was all part of LA NAVY WEEK.
