Modern day Zeppelin flight

[WilliamBoyd]

In January 2009 I got to ride on the Airship Ventures Zeppelin NT,
built by the same German company which built the famous Zeppelins.

The flight started from California's Moffett Field, an old US Army and Navy base.
The Navy flew dirigibles here in the 1930's.

Moffett Field is located near San Jose and "Silicon Valley".

6. St. Carmel Catholic Church, Redwood City

7. Stanford University and Hoover Tower

8. Airship return to Moffett Field

By the way, a dirigible is not a blimp.
