Today we enjoyed a terrific field trip to San Diego. We toured the USS Midway. Talk about completely awesome! We loved all the cool jets and took a very exciting tour of the carrier that was the flagship for the Persian Gulf Force that kicked bootie in Desert Storm. Dinner was at the restaurant made famous by the movie "Top Gun" and then we toodled around the Gaslamp District and Seaport Village, which we always enjoy. A ride in a horsedrawn carriage topped it off. All in all, it was a fabulous day... one of our most fun field trips of the year!
Ta Da! Michael & the babies are ready to go.
I love this shot of Ray Ray because she looks completely bored already.
Yeah, baby!
A smooch for a handsome sailor!

That does sound like fun! Nothing beats actually seeing something historical firsthand--I love all the experiential learning you all do! Kate loves the "Cinderella" carriage!

I'm pretty sure my MP was on a Midway too during the gulf war... perhaps it's the same one? He's on a plan to Sweden right now but will ask him! Much huggies! xoxo
