Got to my spot at 55th and the river at 9:30. And waited. And waited. I remember waiting last year but not this long. No ships, no planes, nada. Until 11:30! F/A-18s showed up at 11:39! And that's it. I waited til noon and left after seeing a couple of ships. Unless there was some kind of security problem whoever organized it this year needs to never have that job again.
