M. & G. really enjoyed renting the audio tour headsets, as you walked thru the museum you could enter certain numbers and it told the story of Pearl Harbor. O. started out listening, too, but was not as interested ... thats OK he is only in Kindergarden.
Z. really liked looking at all the water and all the boats at the Naval pier, there was evven a submarine tied up at one dock
Thankfully during the 15 minute movie about the the history of Pearl Harbor Z. fell alseep on my lap, and O fell asleep on Dads lap. Z. stayed asleep on the little boat ride over to the USS Arizona Memorial and stayed asleep while we looked at most of it. He woke up, though to enjoy riding the boat back to the Memorial Museum:
Daddy and the older boys were able to tour the USS Bowfin (a much older and smaller submarine than the one A. was stationed on.), right next to the USS Arizona memorial museum:
After leaving Pearl Harbor we stopped for a late lunch at
The Hard Rock Cafe Waikiki
Z.'s favorite thing there was to take pictures of this car hanging from the ceiling:
G.'s favorite part was all those surf boards:
Then out in the parking lot of Hard Rock Cafe, the boys saw a lizard ... and I had to be the mean mommy and tell them "NO you may not take him home, or even back to our hotel!"

Ok G. remember that is how we ended up with our lizzard. Our boys found them out in California but weren't allowed to bring them home, so we had to purchase one back home. I know, your parents aren't very happy with me now, but hey they have thousands of miles to get used to the idea :) Enjoy your warm sunny day, we are enjoying eight inches of snow :)
