Tuesday, August 29, 2023
The Ovation of the Seas cruise ship heads to Alaska past the Edmonds ferry dock. The haze might be wildfire smoke or our normal moisture-laden air.

Per Wikipedia, "USS Nimitz (CVN-68) is an aircraft carrier of the United States Navy, and the lead ship of her class. One of the largest warships in the world, she was laid down, launched, and commissioned as CVAN-68, "aircraft carrier, attack, nuclear powered", but she was later redesignated as CVN-68, "aircraft carrier, multi-mission, nuclear-powered", on 30 June 1975, as part of a fleet-wide realignment that year."

Noctiluca blooms are generally not toxic to people and pets, but we do not recommend swimming in these blooms.
