The Showboat

 

 

It has been three long hard years without a field trip to relax our minds and have fun.  I suggest we go to the USS North Carolina for an enjoyable and informative time.

The USS North Carolina is enjoyable because you can get on board and run around and through the ship,but don’t lose sight of the guide or you might get lost in the twists and turns of the ship.  Before you enter the ship you go through a building with people and their World War 2 antiques like bayonets and grenades. Don’t point the guns at your face, it my go off.  Finally there is a short film you can watch to learn more about the ship and how it got it’s nickname the Showboat.  Don’t fall asleep of you will be left in the dark room alone.

The USS North Carolina is also informative, because while you are running around the ship the guide is telling you about each and every room, so listen carefully and you’ll be able to learn more about the ship.  They also show you the Anti-Aircraft shells that the men had to carry around the ship to get to the actual Anti-Aircraft gun and how big they were.  Finally they show how they communicated through 728.8 feet of metal.

Running around the ship was informative and enjoyable and it was a very interesting to learn about the ship, and this a trip we should go on.
