Today's tour took us to the Wisconsin Maritime Museum in Manitowoc where we saw a lot of the history of the fishing and lake life of the area. At 10:30, we had a
memorial service given by our friend Rear Admiral Roy Hoffmann for the fallen comrades of the Hubbard, followed by a tour of the submarine USS Cobia (SS-245) which is docked at the museum.
From there, we were taken to the Lighthouse Inn at Two Rivers for lunch followed by an ice cream dessert at the historic Washington House - where the ice cream sundae was invented - and toured it's nice museum. Then we wandered around the area seeing such unique sites as the
world's largest grandfather's clock, beautiful Algoma Harbor and the Door County Maritime Museum before heading back to socialize with our shipmates. Quite a full day.
