As we were going out on the charter this morning the Queen Mary 2 pulled in...a pretty impressive ship!

On a ship like that...I'm sure there is an elevator of some kind for it 
The thing is 28 stories high....we dove the pipe and you could see it just behind Kaka'ako park...HUGE!

I really wanted to take a walk down to the pier to see it, but it was a bit rainy.
I could see part of the ship looming over the Federal Building from an my office - it was huge from where I was at the far end of downtown - I can just imagine how enormous it is when you're up close to it.

I think I would giant stride that thing. Back roll if I never wanted to dive/walk/or breath again.

I thought you meant you couldn't get back on the ship after diving because of altitude (smile)!
I tried to stay awake because I heard it was leaving port at 11 p.m. It would have sailed right in front of my place. I had my binoculars out and everything. But, I fell asleep. I'm such a wuss . . . .

More wonderful would be to swim along the bridge at about 75 feet.
Keel to funnel is 72 meters or 236.22 feet plus 75 feet = 311.22 feet. Probably the funnel is 20 or so feet over the bridge so about 291 feet.
