• June 4, 2011 North Korean Spy Ship

  Today's "Go Somewhere" is the port city of Yokohama, and we stumbled on a small museum that we had not seen before.

  

  Yokohama Bay Bridge

  

  Japan Coast Guard Ship

  

  Now here is a place we have not gone before.  Let's take a look at that building on the left.

  

  

  Got it?  The ship was raised and is on display here.

  

  These sure don't look like fishing poles to me.

  

  Bazooka guns

  Button with picture of "Dear Leader" Kim Jong Il

  

  The Spy Ship

  

  A view inside the ship from doors in the back.

  

  This is a smaller vessel that could be launched from the main ship.

  

  Underneath is a smaller lifeboat with an underwater scooter.

  

  Heavy artillery

  

  Bullet holes from the Japanese side ammo.

  

  Let's walk around the area a bit more.  These buildings were formerly used for harbor business, but have been remodeled into restaurants and shops.

  

  

  Looked, but didn't buy. I have always liked ship models, but I have no place to put one of these and it might fall and get broken in an earthquake anyway.
