On day 5, we had the honor and privilege of visiting Pearl Harbor, the site of Japan's sneak attack on the USA that thrust us into World War 2. There was a very reverent feel to that hallowed ground. We met an actual survivor of that attack, a gentleman who helped rescue sailors from the water on that morning. After visiting the sight of the attack and the memorial, we visited the Mighty Mo, the battleship Missouri that was the site of Japan's surrender to the US at the end of the war. It was an awesome and sobering day for all of us. We ended it by visiting an Asian restaurant where you cook food at your table on a wok.
