One of our more interesting finds during our trek in Hawaii was stumbling across the set of the new show, 'Lost'. We were a little lost, and if truth be known, I was feeling absolutely gross. Too much sun, and a pretty serious headache. I hear L. gasp from the front seat (I was sprawled out in the back) and sat up to see this plane all munged up on the beach.
We stopped the car and got out. J. has a great gift for gab and asked the security guard what it was and if it was ok if we took a look around. The security dude was very sweet and told us to have a blast, just don't touch anything.
To walk around a plane shell like this is very odd, and rather disconcerting. Because of the attempt at making it look as real as possible, there were pieces of luggage and burnt clothing all around. A baby's shoe. A stroller ripped in half. Even knowing that this was all staged, it still gave me a deep feeling of sadness.
Definitely an experience! Now I'm addicted to the show...I can't wait until Wednesday nights and when they show pics of the plane wreck or the beach, I am transported back there.
