Star of India - Walking Excursion of San Diego

A walk along the Embarcadero in San Diego is a feast for the eyes! One of the main courses would have to be the 'Star of India'. The 'Star of India' is an iron ship built in the Isle of Man in 1863. She is the oldest still active ship in the world. At least once a year she is taken out with a volunteer crew for a reminder of her former glory days.




Standing next to the 'Star of India' is awe inspiring. She is regally dressed in her finest sails and rigging. Quite a sight to behold.
