Ruthi took the Trolley (part of San Diego’s MTS - Metro Transit System) down to the pier to tour the USS Midway Aircraft carrier with her older brother Bill and his youngest daughter (Tonya) and his grandson (almost 3YO SAM). Wow, it is huge! We think Ruthi’s younger brother (Paul) served his last tour on an aircraft carrier.
SAM was able to get into about a dozen planes and helicopter cut-aways. There were all sorts of buttons to push and toggles to flip. They provide headsets and tapes that provide details on each exhibit. You should have seen SAM’s eyes when he was listening. Such focus!! Anyway, Ruthi had a great time and while the MTS isn’t quite as easy as LA’s metro system, it does save stress of driving down, finding parking, etc. etc. etc.
