On our recent trip aboard the Sapphire Princess we visited San Diego and berthed close to the USS Midway. This Sunday's column covers that visit. When it was launched, the Midway was the largest ship afloat in the world at about 65,000 tons. Today is it somewhat dwarfed by the Sapphire which is 116,000 tons. Nonetheless it is an impressive ship with lots to see. You would need several trips to cover everything there and that includes a lot of aircraft.
