Pearl Harbor and 'Iolani Palace

Couldn’t miss the quintessential visit to Pearl Harbor when in Hawaii. Booked tickets in advance for the USS Arizona Memorial, checked in at the park, and took a boat to the Memorial floating above the sunken wreckage of the USS Arizona, where the “tears of Arizona” can be seen on the water’s surface; The Battleship Missouri, where you can take an in-park shuttle bus to from Ford Island, is the last retired battleship of the U.S. Navy that you can board for a tour 🚢 Skipped the Aviation Museum and the Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum this time around. Headed straight to the 'Iolani Palace in the city center 👑 This building was the formal residence of the last two monarchs of the Kingdom of Hawaii and was also used as a court 📖 ✈️ Getting ready to start island-hopping in Hawaii, flying from Oahu to the Volcano Island, Big Island 🌋 #PearlHarborTravel
