On Monday, May 24, I covered the arrival of the Nina and Pinta--replicas of two of Christopher Columbus' ships--that will be in Philly till Memorial Day.The thing that really got to me was just how tiny these ships are. It must've been something, crossing the unknown Atlantic in a ship that is smaller than some personal pleasure boats that you see cruising up and down the Delaware.
The story and pictures appeared in the Center City Weekly Press.

You can see two quick videos--one of Captain Joe Hopkins talking aboout the importance of the new Nina and Pinta and another one of the Pinta being docked--below.
