Qingdao harbor - tugs, warships, and lifeboat racing
Tugster likes to get up close and watch the tugs push freighters around. Here's a shot of a warship getting pushed around - in Qingdao, China. There's some sort of friendly gathering of warships there for a multinational naval parade.
Highlights include a lifeboat (吊船) race, and a stubby Chinese nuclear submarine.
