Pensacola

My son says he found his new favorite campground.

With the National Museum of Naval Aviation within walking distance of the campground we were staying at, and a Blue Angels practice airshow twice a day, my aviation loving son was in heaven.

T-34 Mentor.   One of my son's favorite trainer planes.

We spent Wednesday touring the museum while Mom took the day off to catch up on a sewing project at the RV. Daughter was done after a couple of hours, but son and I closed the place down.

Having fun with the Mirror Landing System

Son's favorite aircraft the F-14 Tomcat. They had a cockpit to test out right in front of the real thing.

The next day we toured the Pensacola Lighthouse and Museum. We even got to see a Blue Angel show from up at the top of the light. There was also an old fort to tour and we even spent some time at a beach on base.
