That load happened to be made in China The one I remember was when they had to match the tide as it only cleared the Bay Bridge at low tide and then with less than a foot. Ten o'clock news had a cool video showing them going under the Bay Bridge with a guy up on top the crane reaching out and touching the bottom of the Bay Bridge as they went under.<br><br>BTW, what kind of camera did you order, bro? Did you move to a DSLR or maybe the SX10?

They will be moved to land. They look so top heavy I would never have thought it was possible to ship them like that but this is how they arrive in Vancouver too.Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00763611338613325523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574688935917970388.post-69201046160455882422009-01-27T08:55:00.000-08:002009-01-27T08:55:00.000-08:00Wow!
