We headed to North Island Naval Station with Tim, Steve's cousin's husband, for Fleet Week. He is in the Navy and stationed in San Diego. We brought Jake along and knew he would have a ball. This is the ship that we toured. It is the newest one in the fleet. It hasn't even been commissioned yet.
The Marine Amphibious stuff was there since that is what this ship carries. Jake was very intrigued, as was Steve.
They got to climb in and test the vehicles. Steve even started this truck.
Jake learned how to work the guns and was able to shoot them, bullet free of course.
He tried on the bullet proof vest and helmet, minus the lead.
A beautiful view of downtown San Diego from the ship.

How fun...what a beautiful day in San Diego!
Shall we tell Mitch there's a sailor in the making????
He doesn't want to go navy. All those vehicles are the Marines!
