SPECTACULAR...Day 2!

It was another beautiful day in Jacksonville. I got a call from Lauren after church, inviting me back down to the beach for the second day of the Sea and Sky Spectacular. I just had to go. I decided that I might not get an opportunity like this again...

Boy am I glad I went. It was incredible!! I got to meet some of the Red Devils, the official parachute team for the British Army, and the Black Daggers, the official US Army Special Operations Command Parachute Demonstration Team. I definitely got autographs and had someone take a picture of Lauren and I with Billy!

The fly overs were incredible. The Red Baron Squadron were awesome. Patty Wagstaff did an amazing low-level acrobatic routine. I got to see the Heritage Flight which consisted of a F-4 Phantom, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and my most favorite of all, the P-51 Mustang from WWII. It brought tears to my eyes.

The Blue Angels closed out the day. They were incredible. I have never seen flying like what they did. The perfection and precision of everything they did was incredible. I'm still in awe. It just made me even more proud to be an American. Our military is incredible...thank you for all that you do for our country!

I used to go to Air shows when I was little! I had so much fun...I think we would go see the Blue Angels.

Looks like you had an amazing time!

Can't wait to see you in a few weeks:)
