Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial


This was a very moving memorial. It's very solemn and quiet - I was surprised how emotional it was. Standing over the USS Arizona you are standing over the graves of 1,177 men who are still entombed inside.


You can still see oil leaking from the battelship and it's been 67 years.

We came to Honolulu for the sole purpose of seeing this and I am so glad we did - even if just to pay our respects.
