Tourists in our own town

Well, this was actually a few weeks ago, but it was neat, so I don't want to forget it. We took a little family outing to see the USS KIDD a WWII Destroyer moored right here in Baton Rouge. According to the website, this ship is one of the best restorations around. We were pleasantly surprised at how authentic yet hands on it was-- i mean there were zero "no touching" signs :)

In the Galley.

This here is what it looks like. I'm all about saving space, but this is a little too functional for me.

Good times had by all! Wish we would have taken our families when they were here. Oh well, they'll just have to come back!
