Battleship trip #5

Today we went back see the Battleship USS Alabama. It was a good uneventful trip and Christopher had been wanting to back since our 4th visit. It was a cool day, which was nice, because it is a long walking tour up and down ladders and stairs. Anyway, we had a great time at the Battleship Park and at Bass Pro. If you have never been to a Mega Bass Pro, I recommend it. Large arcade and a really good restaurant.

If you go back to trip # 1-4 you might find a picture of Christopher and this large round and you can see how much he has grown.

The USS Alabama is the only tour that comes with break beds.

The beds look a lot bigger when he is on them.

Stop taking pictures and move it.

Here I am trying to figure out how to start this puppy.

On the deck of the USS Drum, which is a submarine.

See more of those tour beds.

I know this one will not move, it is dry docked.

This is why we come back, the USS Drum's control tower is now open to tour.

Coming down from the control tower. It is my size, not so much so for Daddy.

Here I am at Bass Pro. That is an albino catfish behind me.

How is it they have a fish tank bigger than most peoples swimming pools.

A look back over the store from the waterfall.

One of the arcade games, it is a cool target practice game.

Here I am being an angle hoping to wrangle a good dessert out of Daddy.

Daddy and I, before the meal.
 
Like I said, it was a good father and son trip. We both enjoyed it and look forward to trip number six. If you visit before we head west we would glad take you on trip number six.
