Up in the Sky... No it's not Superman. It's the Blue Angels!


There are many awe inspiring sights to be found along Florida's Gulf Coast. However, this weekend is one of the most popular with a performance of the Navy's Ace Flying team - the Blue Angels.

These six jets, F-18s, soar and cut through the air with breathtaking precision. Their aerodynamic maneuvers impress young and old alike.

The show will start around noon time, but as this is a popular event for locals and vacationing guests plan accordingly.

The best way to enjoy the air show over Pensacola Beach is by traveling by boat along the Sound. This way you can get in and get out without too much of a traffic jam. However, if you come by car, make sure to make a day of it because you will need to arrive early to get a parking space, and once the show is over it will take hours for the mass exodus of cars to vacate the island. So, pack a lunch and some good listening music.

It is a memorable event to watch the Blue Angels soar up and down vertically and horizontally and any other angle they can muster, but no matter the inconvenience of parking or crowds the show is worth it. But, don't take my word for it, check the Blue Angels out for yourself.
