Visiting the USS Midway

It took us almost four hours to get down to San Diego, but we made and we had a great time exploring the USS Midway. The USS Midway is the longest-serving Navy aircraft carrier of the 20th century.  The carrier served in the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm. The Midway was the largest ship until 1955.  We did a self-guided audio tour, which Trent loved and made sure we stayed on track.
