Saturday, September 29th Tour:
 
We boarded the buses and headed for downtown Baton Rouge.  Our first stop was the USS Kidd (DD-661) Museum.  The ship was the first one named in honor of Rear Admiral Isaac Kidd Sr. who died at Pearl Harbor aboard the USS Arizona, his flagship, on December 7th, 1941.  Our Chaplain conducted our Honor Ceremony aboard the USS Kidd.  After touring the ship and museum, we departed for lunch at the Hollywood Casino where we had a really good buffet.  After lunch we boarded the buses for a tour of downtown Baton Rouge and the old Capitol Building.
