Yesterday I had a blast when I checked out the The Menagerie Oddities Market World Goth Day Festival that took place on board the USS Hornet which is permanently docked at the old naval base in Alameda.

I went with friends Rees and Jens and I'm telling you, it made all the difference in the world to enjoy it with them.                   
 
 


 
 
 There were food trucks on the dock beside the ship . . .

 We were greeted by a VERY lovely Goth lady . . .
 


. . . but her buddy made me prove I was over 21!




But I am so I got in!




. . . lots of vendor stalls with merchandise to sell (link below) on the ship . . .
