Yesterday we took up okamiotoko2004's most generous offer of riding a navy ship for the day.
What a treat that was! He got us on board and showed us around...where he works, the ships store and barbar shop...the works (what was allowed that is)! We had a very nice breakfast in the ships dinningroom (for lack of a better work)...someone had a lot of talent and painted the walls with a tropical scene. We were also taken up to the bridge and there were a couple of spots on the ship where things, like fire protection and weapons, were displayed and explained.
Later they set up a big BBQ and put on the music....there we were 12 or so n.miles from shore having fun
Even though the day was overcast I was able to get some nice pictures and as soon as I finish work...I'll post a couple.
Just wanted to say a big Mahalo to okamiotoko2004 for such a treat...Roger said it brought back lots of good memories.
(PS: We saw rain everywhere but the were able to dodge the rain all day...giving me a perfect sunburn...would you believe it???)
