Visiting the USS Lexington
March 11th, 2010
Visiting the USS Lexington in South Texas is one of the really cool things to do! It is in Corpus Chiristi and is a World War two – era aircraft with several additional airplanes on deck. You can take a self-guided tour through the ship. You can even take pictures with some of the battle tanks. pete’s wicked travels talks about him also taking a picture with a retired world war veteran. It is very educational, and it gives you a good perspective of what are armed forces do for our country. You do want to be sure and wear comfortable shoes because there are lots of stairs to climb and there will be a lot of walking. It also gets very hot in south Texas so you may want to lather on the sunscreen and be prepared to wear a hat. There is so much to see you will want to prepare to be there for at least several hours. The first time I went, I also saw Ben Aflack, because they were filming parts of Pearl Harbor aboard the USS Lexington.
