Hawaii Day 3

Today started out VERY rainy. But we went to the flea market at the Halawa Stadium. Karen wanted a Bubble Tea so I tried one, Honeydew & Peach flavor, with Pearls (huge tapioca) at the bottom of the cup. It was really good.  No pics at the flea market, too rainy, but I got one of the Stadium from the car after we left. It rained cats and dogs there till Karen and I found umbrellas to buy. Not even five minutes later it stopped raining and was very hot and windy. After lunch we went to the Arizona Memorial at Peal Harbor. It is very sad to read all the plaques with names of those lost. A reminder of all the sacrifices made just for our freedom. There was too much wind for the boats to take people to the Memorial so I just took pictures from land.
