Tall Ships Philadelphia Camden began on Thursday with the arrival of several sailboats and, of course, a giant rubber duck.

The duck did get stuck at one point against a container ship and slowly paddled up the Delaware River before arriving in all its glory between PennsLanding and the Camden waterfront.

The festival lasts through the weekend.

Tickets are $7 each.
