Today we departed from LA to go to San Diego. We woke up and we ate breakfast at Bob's Burgers. I had country fried steak and it was delicious. We then went to San Diego. The trip was kinda long and I got kind of sick. When we arrived we put all of our luggage in one room. The other rooms were not ready. After that we went to the USS Midway. It is the oldest air craft carrier in the United States Fleet. It was a very interesting tour. The ship was steam propelled, so the propeller is turned through steam pressure. We also learned that the slingshot that is used is operated by two pistons. After the tour, we walked through the ship and we learned a lot. It was like a city at sea. They had food, laundry, and medical services on board. It was very interesting. They also had simulations where you could pretend like you were actually flying a plane. I did not get to go on because the ride closed. We then went to the Cheese Cake Factory for dinner. I had shrimp and chicken gumbo. It was delicious. I was so full though that I could hardly walk. We got back to the hotel room and we went to bed.

I am sorry to hear about your motion sickness…the plane ride and drive to SD must have been horrible…How is it that you are able to go on the rides at Universal?…wouldn't you get sick from that as well? Glad to hear that you all are eating well and having a great time. Hope the start of STN today was a good one for your group...
