Anyone who has been to Duluth has probably seen the the "William Irvin" ship at Bayfront near Canal Park here in Duluth. Isaac sees the ship often and knows it by name, but we have never stepped foot onto the ship or toured inside it. With the last few weeks of the open touring season upon us, Joel decided to seize the opportunity and take Isaac for a tour this weekend. Here's some more info for those who are interested in the history:

And for those of you who just want to see the pictures, here you go!
The big ship:

Quite a view of Duluth Harbor and Aerial Lift Bridge in the background:

Hold onto your hats - look who's at the wheel!

And when the boys returned home and I asked how the big ship was, Isaac said, "mama, I saw a yellow FAST car!" Sure enough, they parked right behind this:

I think the car made more of an impression on Isaac than the William Irvin!
