Matt and Kim's first vacation alone in over 10 years!!!

Matt and I went on our first vacation alone in over 10 years. This is us as we were heading out the door for the airport. Destination: San Diego, California
We dropped the kids off with friends on July 27th and picked them up on July 31st.
Four days and four nights alone!








Our hotel, in Old Town San Diego






We took a tour of the U.S.S. Midway aircraft carrier. This was my favorite stop on our trip. If you don't count our hotel room (Shhh!!)
Matt showed me the cramped sleeping conditions he had while out to sea. There are three bunks on top of each other in less than 6 feet!
Matt would have to wait in line and receive his food in an area like this.
Matt went on a simulated FA-!8 flight. This was the kind of plane he worked on.




I love this statue! It is just outside of the aircraft carrier.

When Matt was in the Navy, he was a Plane Captain. This shows what he had to wear while working on a 120+ degree flight deck.
