Senior Cruise
I got to go on the Senior Cruise with my NJROTC Unit Monday and today in Groton, CT. Despite the name, only NS3s (The Highest cadets in our unit can get up to) could go, and we didn't really go on a cruise.
We did, however, go on a Submarine (an actual in-commission Sub (Today), and a museum (Monday)). The one in commission was so cramped I sucked in my gut in order to get through some areas, and I had a full stomach (BTW, if you're ever in that area, GET THE NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER!). And the museum... it was a bit cramped as well, but I could at least move around a little.
Had General Tso's chicken at the hotel's restruaunt. Somebody was complaining about not feeling well after, but I felt fine (in fact, I could've went for more). And before that, we went to a Sauna, and everyone was relaxed and stuff (until the steam was starting to take the fresh air away). Then we just went into the jacuzzi.
Earlier today, we went to the Mystic Aquarium. Saw a Beluga Whale, Sea Lion, penguins, seals, and many more. Saw Spongebob in 4D, which was intresting (the pirate guy will give me nightmares, however). I pet a Stingray (it felt weird).
I took around 200 pictures. Some of boats, fish, friends, and medals, others of local architecture and 20mm cannons.
So, even though we spent one day in Groton... it was worth it. I had fun, I got two magnets, a T-shirt, and allot of memories.
