 U.S.S. Missouri and Arizona
Memorial by Redlats
Next, tour the U.S.S.Bowfin -- a WW II submarine. You get to board the sub and re-live a WW II mission via a self-guided tour on a walkman.
The final ship at the site is the U.S.S.Missouri - The Mighty Mo -- the battleship on which the Japanese officially surrendered after WW II. The Missouri also saw action in the Gulf war. The Battleship Missouri is a huge ship - easy to get lost on her.
By the way, if you actually do visit all three ships in one day, it is a l-o-n-g day. Our kids (who are older teens) lost patience with historic ships somewhere between the Bowfin and the Missouri.
The Arizona Memorial is free - After the Arizona, just around the corner is the Bowfin. Tickets for the Bowfin and the Missouri are bought at the same spot. The price in 2001 to see both is $18 for older-than-kids. Leave a Comment Directions: Pearl Harbour

Honolulu public buses stop regularly at the Visitor Center and can be boarded in Waikiki. The #20 and #42 bus will take you to the USS Arizona Memorial Visitor Center. No purses allowed. The most of the visitors got emotional after watch the documentary, before they take you to the memorial. Try to be early. Leave a Comment

 USS Arizona Memorial by Bwana_Brown
Another footnote: I spent the 60th anniversary of Pearl Harbour walking the length of Manhatten to the site of the still smouldering ruins of the twin towers of the World Trade Center, to say a little prayer for those souls as well. Leave a Comment Directions: Pearl Harbor
