Hawaii - Day Five

Friday we devoted the day to Pearl Harbor. There was a lot of it under construction...so that was a bummer but we still spent several hours there and learned a lot. It was amazing to see everything. We started with a small movie about how it all happened and how the invasion took place. Then they took us out to the USS Arizona Memorial. It was so neat to see. I couldn't believe after 69 years it is still leaking as much oil as it is. It was awesome. Then Chris decided he really wanted to take a tour of the USS Missouri. It was so neat to see everything. We took the guided tour as well as had a headset and we could listen to as much or as little as we wanted. I am glad we devoted the whole day to this because it took a long time. After we headed north again to the Dole Plantation... and got in for just enough time to buy Coconut Syrup and Pineapple Ice Cream. After we headed to dinner at Haliewa Joe's.
