Visit to Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial


This morning my family and I got up early to go and see the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. When we arrived, there was a long line of people waiting to get into the building. We finally did get in and went to the store there. I bought 3 magnets and something else too. There is also a museum there too but we didn't go this time. Then we went to the line to see the movie in the theater. The movie was great. As soon as the movie was done we went out the exit to the boat that takes us to the USS Arizona Memorial. The boat ride was fun. We got to the Memorial and looked at the USS Arizona in the water. You should go see it for yourself sometime. There were many men that died on the ship. Only a few survivors. It is interesting to walk around the Memorial and see the different views of the ship and other parts of Pearl Harbor. We had another fun boat ride back to the building and then we went all the way back home. I had a Blast! I'm sure the rest of the family did too!
