April 2008
Michael leaves for Yokosuka, Japan to be stationed on the USS Blue Ridge (LCC-19). I couldn't be more proud of him!! Although I must admit, it was EXTREMELY hard saying goodbye to him til July when Laela was born! While being stationed aboard the BR Michael has seen many new countries. So far he has seen:
Thailand
Singapore
Malaysia
Hong Kong
Phillipines
Korea
Maybe a few others! His favorite thus far seems to be Hong Kong. He said it was absolutely beautiful at night! He even got to see where part of The Dark Knight was filmed, which he was SUPER excited about! We are hoping to see him soon!
