Ships Ahoy!

The military had a security operation last Friday which closed the base, thus giving Karl the day off. We all took off to Mobile, Alabama to tour the USS Alabama. It was interesting to go down into a WWII era battleship. There was a sub to tour too (yes imagine a 7 month pregnant momma trying to squeeze through all these tiny spaces).

The stairs on the ship were SO steep Karl had to carry the girls down them, yah for strong daddy!

 The girls loved all the beds in one room!

 This label made me chuckle.

 Looks like our family might have two bad apples.

 About to enter the USS Drum. I still can't imagine spending 3+ months undersea on one of these bad boys!

 Found more beds!

 Steering the sub...the girls got a big kick out of this.

I enjoyed watching the girls have fun touring Navy vessels. Karl enjoyed sharing part of his life with them.
