spanish galleon port visit
Docked alongside the uss kidd

The days of sail will return to town this week as the Spanish galleon EL GALEÓN ANDALUCÍA docks alongside the USS KIDD in downtown Baton Rouge. The vessel is a replica of 16th and 17th century ship designs that served as the primary mode of ocean-going transportation for over 300 years. Constructed by the Nao Victoria Foundation in Spain in 2009-10, she has visited ports in four continents. Since EL GALEÓN is visiting "the Pirate of the Pacific" (aka USS KIDD), it is only fitting that guests meet a pirate while aboard. Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies (aka actor and Johnny Depp look-alike Arik Christopher) will be here to greet the kids.
