Yesterday we took a trip to see the USS Lexington in Corpus Christi, TX. It was really interesting to see the inside workings of the ship. We were able to go into the ship and walk through the living quarters, ship hospital and dental clinic, mess hall, machine shop, barber shop and much more. I don't think I could ever live on a ship like this as it felt very boxed in. The areas were small with low ceilings in alot of places and very steep stairs. The crews bunks were the size of long low shelves..no privacy there! The air quality wasn't great...imagine all those sailors in the small areas....it could be an adventure in smells!! lol
A very interesting place and well worth the entrance fee.
