On our first day in Hawaii we went to Pearl Harbor and the USS Missouri.
I love this picture of the Arizona monument from the bow of the USS Missouri.
This is the spot where they signed the treaty for the end of WWII.
Leis are placed at the Arizona memorial. One interesting thing is that some of the survivors choose to be buried at the Arizona memorial with their shipmates.
This is the flag flying above the memorial.
This is the monument at Punchbowl national cemetary. People can only drive through, you can't get out anymore.
This is a tomb for an unknown soldier. All the tombstones are flat like this one.
This is the view of Wakiki from the top of the Punchbowl.

A visit to the Arizona Memorial is sobering. It certainly makes us appreciate what men and women have given to protect our freedoms.
