My husband and I were recently in Bay City, MI were fortunate to see a few of the tall ships coming in for their Tall Ship Celebration... http://tallshipcelebration.com/  Apparently it's a huge event that's held every four years. We were disappointed to learn that we were leaving the morning the event started. Then were delighted the evening before we left, when one of the tall ships sailed right into the harbor where we were sitting-- and docked right in front of us!
