Poor Jake gets so bored. I feel sorry for him...but not so sorry that I relish leaving the room and dealing with this:

You wanna know what's worse? Crawling along in this parking lot, realizing...you missed your turn...and that it would cost you at least an extra thirty minutes of drive time. Awesome. It was about this point that I asked Jake if it would be OK with him if we just stayed in the hotel room the rest of our trip.

Drive with Aloha, my eye. I've got your Aloha, right here!

We finally made it to our destination, The Pacific Aviation Museum.

Pshhh...this map makes it look so much easier.

If only every road led to our destination this way.

What displays they had were very well done, but the museum was much smaller than we imagined.

I mean, this looks like just one wall in Jake's room.

After the aviation museum, we went back to the room to wait for Heidi's call. She had offered to take us to Hickam AFB for Mongolian BBQ tonight. What a beautiful location. (Unfortunately, my camera was not cooperating and would not focus properly...I think because of the steam...but you get the idea.)

Brandon is Jake's age. Jake immediately relaxed and enjoyed visiting with him...and Brandon was so considerate...all of the kids were...in helping Jake with anything he needed. It was such a lovely evening and I'm so grateful to Heidi for making the effort...with 6 of her kids!

Oh...and I can't make this stuff up. This was the fortune from my cookie. While not actually a fortune by definition, I think it was pretty apropos, don't you? I know I will never forget Heidi's kindness.
