Fort Pickens and Blue Angels Viewing (again)

 
We walked all over Fort Pickens one afternoon. You get to go on top and all over inside the fort. Also, there is a beach on the coastal bay side to fish and swim.
 
On this map, between the Tidal Inlet and the marsh is where the campground is located.

Aerial view of the fort. 


Carl checking the guide to see where we go next on our tour.





 
Down at the fort, you are straight across from the Naval Air Station. One night we were at the table eating supper and we heard a very loud noise of aircraft (more than usual). It was the Blue Angels coming back from Lakeland, FL for a demonstration. But, with them came the French Aviation pilots that were also at that event.
(Of course, I didn't take this pic.)
 
The next two pics are ours down at the fort. Watching them here you get to see where they go after they perform at the viewing area in front of the crowd.  Also, they fly right over top of your head.  VERY LOUD!
