Visitors


It has been sort of weird around here since our last visitor departed. We had two visitors from May 21st to June 10th. First was my cousin Jessica who spent just under a week with us. We had a good time and did some tourist type stuff, some we've done before and some we haven't but mostly we just hung out at the beach. Sam and I aren't party people so we were relieved we didn't have to go out to any clubs, although I had suggested we go to a Karaoke bar.
Just before Jessica left we were informed that one of my other cousins would be arriving three days after Jessica departed.



David arrived via CVN74 or otherwise known as the U.S.S. John C. Stennis. David was only going to be here for three days, but it turned into a week and a half. I was told to meet David at the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial around 11 A.M. but the Navy had other plans.
You can see how thrilled I look--I was hungry which didn't help--










I don't remember what this was called, but here he is Big Dave.
Dave gave me a tour of the ship which was cool. I have never been on an aircraft carrier, and I am looking forward to going on a Tiger Cruise one day. In the picture above you can see the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial and the U.S.S. Missouri Memorial behind it.


We played Miniature Golf David's last night, and he won.

It was fun to have visitors, and maybe one day someone will want to go to a karaoke bar when they visit. I hope Sam and I have a better different place to live the next time we host someone.
