SS Lane Victory

Our original intent was to head to LA's Museum of Art but we were still recovering from our weekend and so we opted to stay close to home.

After lunch with LD, we headed to the Harbor Area of San Pedro to view the SS Lane Victory, a Liberty Class Ship. She was not as sizeable as the Midway but she was still quite the lovely piece of work. For our $3 donation we got to explore any part of the ship that was not blocked off . .which was quite a bit.

Additionally, two of her holds were converted into museums and held quite a view displays.

They even included a list of movies and television spots that were shot on the Lane Victory and we were amazed the number of times this ship has been featured.

Between exploring every nook and cranny available to us and watching one of the barges unload across the harbor way we managed to fill our afternoon quite effectively.
