Since we had no plans we decided to check it out. Now, I am not a big military/boat/plane buff, but this thing was pretty interesting.
We toured the ENTIRE boat that carried up to 4500 people. We toured where they lived, ate, showered, cooked, did laundry, played, the brig (that's slammer to you and me), where they navigated the boat, the steam and engine rooms, Captain's Quarters, even where they planned the strikes in Desert Storm. Then we went up top and toured the planes and the air traffic control area.
It was the one educational trip for the vacation. We try to put down the beer and forks of food while on vacation long enough to to learn at least ONE new thing. It's a little vacation rule we have :)
