blue angels












A fellow camper told us about this excellent naval aviation museum, which is also the home of the blue angels. The let visitors watch their practice shows for free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so we rerouted our plan so we could go see them. On Monday we toured the museum and were floored at the amazing collection of aircraft that was all privately funded and is free to tour. A retired navy pilot, turned astronaut inspired us with his life story and commended us in our homeschool efforts and travels.
Tuesday we for up early and were so excited to see the show. We were blown away by the dare devil maneuvers, inspired by the skill and bravery of those pilots. So thrilled were we that we decided that we had to go back the next day to catch the show again and meet the pilots.
