Bremerton Navy Museum

Today we spent exploring the local area. What started out as a trip to Value Village for some jeans for yours truly.... getting kinda cool here on the coast, turned into a wonderful day trip to the local Navy museum! As we were heading to the parking lot above the marina we met up with our neighbors and friends Wayne and Juanita, they also live here on their boat. They were heading out to visit the museum and invited us to tag along, it sounded like a great idea! The fountains surrounding the museum were way cool, they 'erupted' like volcano's! I even took of my flip-flops and waded in the pools... it WAS really hot out....  don't tell anyone! The museum was very cool, lots of interactive stuff for kids AND adults. You could listen to sonar and guess what it was, whale or ship, ice or shrimp... I did VERY badly. LOL. We watched videos and movies... learned about the navy and the Pacific Northwest. It was way cool, but I am a big history buff so I loved it. After the museum we went to Value Village and us ladies found some warm clothes, then it was back home to the marina. Juanita invited us to dinner on their boat, Roast, carrots and potatoes. YUM... It has been MONTHS since I've had homemade roast. It was a great day all around  :-)
