More Elissa pics!

Here's the rest of the pictures. Sorry for the small size/low quality, these are the only copies I can find right now. Captions underneath.
Thar she blows! Her sails and some of the rigging were damaged by Ike, so they're currently being worked on.
The landing right outside the ticket office. Ship is to the left, museum to the right. Second story landing at the pier, perfect for dance floor, bar, refreshments, band...
Lovely views of the Elissa. The white ship in the background is the Carnival Ecstasy, taking on passengers for a five-day voyage to the Mexican Carribean. Sarah, and the bow facing the Harbor House.
A festive gangplank, with some tourists.
Harbor House again. We might stay here, we might not, it depends on if the repairs are complete and if rooms are available. It would be great to be able to walk from the pier to the honeymoon suite and then back to the pier in the morning.
Still a lot of junk from Ike. The workshop (shown here) and museum caught the worst of it.
Excited Sarah boarding the ship.
Tim playing preacher-man!
Yvonne looking worried.
We can't believe we're coming back in September!
Practicing the kiss...
...yay!
"The honeymoon suite," Tim said. Uh, oh...I hope not.
Ahoy there, steering wheel!
The galley. Looks pretty much like my cook line at work, only a bit more spacious.
Galveston weather does not agree with my hair, therefore I am wearing a hat. And considering a veil for the wedding.
There's quite a bit of space on deck. We want to have a brief ceremony here, with Sarah and I standing at the wheelhouse and guests standing below. (Except the older folks will have chairs.) Then move the party to the dock and let guests explore the ship at their leisure.
