San Diego - Part 1

USS MIDWAY

This past weekend we headed to San Diego to hang out with Stephen, who was there to run in a marathon. We got down there Friday afternoon and left Monday afternoon. Our first stop when we got there was the USS Midway, an aircraft carrier. It was amazing how large it was. We didn't get a chance to look around the entire thing, since they closed at 5, but we made sure to look at the hangar and the flight deck.

They had some cockpits and planes you could climb in. Lily had lots of fun playing with all the controls, levers, and buttons. How cute is she in her sailor hat?!






We have started a tradition of getting Lily a book at every neat place we visit. We got one at the Mackinac Island, the Grand Canyon, etc. The book we got her at the USS Midway is called "Nugget on the Flight Deck". I was so excited! I call Lily nugget most of the time, so I think it's hilarious it's part of the title.
