Mom, what's this memorial all about?

Finishing up our last week here in Hawai'i. Yesterday we spent the entire day visitng the USS Arizona Memorial, the USS Missouri and the USS Bowfin, along with their associated museums in Pearl Harbor. It is truly an all day affair.

We arrived around 10am, by bus, but the earliest tickets (free) available to visit the Arizona were 2 pm. We purchased our tickets for the USS Missouri and the USS Bowfin and took the free shuttle over to the battleship. After about 1.5 hours we returned to the Arizona Memorial Visitor Center, toured the memorial and museum and then finished up the day visiting the USS Bowfin. The audio tour for the Bowfin was top-rate and included in your admission.

Our friend picked us up on her way home from work and we finsihed the day with a nice dinner.

Love the photos, especially at the Dole Pineapple Plantation, and Kailua Beach, as we'd been there about 20 years ago. Nice to see everything still looks so beautiful in Hawaii. Bravo on a beautiful trip!
