We started August by going with Jared to his training in Oceanside, CA.
Megan was able to join us too!
Isn't she cute? We had to leave really early Sunday morning & for some reason my hair dryer would NOT work so I had a nasty wet little ponytail but Megan's beauty made up for me.
Too bad this was what the Temple looked like while we were there.
This ship was grounded by our hotel.
PetCo field looked beautiful. We were sad we weren't able to go to a game there.
A submarine
A ship that would've been fun to tour.
We chose to tour the U.S.S. Midway. An aircraft carrier that is now used as a museum for the public.
We wore head phones that would tell us what we were looking at. Here is where the men slept. I can't remember details but it was a lot of men in a crowded area with no privacy. I could not have lived on this ship.
The store.
You had to step up at each door or they were knee knockers.
Brig (jail)
The different uniforms for the different jobs on the ship. Who's the weird guy on the left?
Some of the airplanes & helicoptors on the ship.
It was amazing & neat knowing this ship was used while George Bush was president. I recommend going here if you ever go to San Diego.
This statue was huge & it is from Alfred Eisenstaedt's black-and-white photograph of an unidentified sailor kissing a nurse in 1945. It became an iconic photo marking the end of WWII.
Here's our first day in Oceanside. Meg & I decided to walk to the beach & it was quite the experience even though it wasn't too long of a walk.
We ate some yummy fish & chips at this harbor & sat next to a really nice family.
We were playing in the water & stopped paying attention & got hit with a wave. Jared says that's what happens when you turn your back to the ocean.
