Why I won’t tour the ships
The fleet has come to port. Lock up your children and pets. That’s not really fair; I don’t know anything about naval personnel other than the stereotypes presented by hundreds of years of literature and dozens of years of cinema, but the local wharf has a king’s ransom in expensive military yachts tied alongside. There’s an open invitation to go and tour, but the thought of standing in line with thousands of others for the chance to walk up and down some metal stairs is hardly a drawing card; I’ll abstain.
