WWII Museum<\/h3>\n
100% MUST.\u00a0 This museum took us all day to tour.\u00a0 We watched a short film narrated by Tom Hanks called Beyond All Boundaries and took a break to eat lunch, but basically it was walking through the museum which showed the history leading up to and through WWII, learning why it started and how it escalated to a World War.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The first thing you do there is get a dog tag and then board a train.\u00a0 On the train you scan your tag and see who you are.\u00a0 Laureen was Bob Hope, an entertainer. Mark was Ernie Pyle, a journalist. Vince and Kim were soldiers.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
It’s interesting to see what each person takes away from the museum and what they focus on the most.\u00a0 For Laureen it was the people of that time – what their houses look like, how they used their rations, etc.\u00a0 For Mark it was the dates and timelines of what happened when.\u00a0 Neither of us were very familiar with the history of WWII, just the major events like Pearl Harbour and Hitler, kind of what we learned through the entertainment industry.<\/div>\n
