Pearl Harbor

On our way back from Waikiki we decided to tour Pearl Harbor. Todd had the camera so the pictures are crazy. This is the only picture of me at Pearl Harbor.

I thought Pearl Harbor was really amazing to visit. The book I was reading at the time (Unbroken by Laura Hildenbrand) was about a POW during WWII who was held by the Japanese and was stationed in Hawaii before his plane went down so I had all sorts of stories going on in my head as I walked around. It's always so humbling to visit memorials for those who serve our country and gave their lives so I can live in a free country.
