Dear Moms, Dads, brothers, sisters, friends… who read the blog and follow us on this incredible experience…
We are going to talk about our day in Oahu. We have been here just a few days but it really seems like we just got here. Everything is going sooooo fast! We are totally having the time of our lives.
Today was a really exciting and memorable day. We left at 8am and we went to Pearl Harbor in the morning. We arrived there at 9am and we got in a boat that took us to the Arizona Memorial. This place made us feel so open minded, we were so interested and we really wanted to learn everything about it. We saw a video that showed us exactly what happened on Dec 7, 1941, the Pearl Harbor attack. We were glad that we had the opportunity of being there and learn.
Right after leaving the USS Arizona Memorial guided us to the USS Missouri. We worked as volunteers, divided in 3 different groups and we helped them in different tasks. After our work was done, we took a tour around the boat and learned that the ship was also the place for the end of the Second World War. Such an interesting place made us fell that we were part of the history.
After all this activities, we were hungry and we went to a mall to eat. In the afternoon, we had a city tour in Honolulu and we stopped at the Iolani Palace and the King Kamehameha’s statue.
After that we took of to go to the beach!!! We went to Waimanalo beach! The weather was a little cloudy, but we had a great time. Some of us swam and others played volley.
Back at our hotel, we went for dinner at 7 in this amazing place. It was a buffet and the restaurant was really cool. After eating we had some time in Waikiki.
An amazing day is waiting for us and we will enjoy it as much as we can.
That is everything for today, but remember to continue reading tomorrow!!!
