Blue Angels in SF

As far as I'm concerned the best part of Fleet Week SF is the performance of the Blue Angels jets and stunt planes. Their real performance is on Saturday and the city is crammed with people, but I discovered last year that their practice session on Friday afternoon is a great show with about half the crowd. So I talked Pete into working a half day and then heading up to the city with his girls. We sat on the beach at Crissy Field and watched the show on a beautiful, clear sunny day. It was grand!

This is how GG kisses, sucking her lips in to make the noise

We got some sand between our toes and just relaxed on the beach.

The jets moved so fast and did so many amazing maneuvers, but that made it hard to get a good shot of them.
Syd playing chase with the waves, she couldn't get enough of the water, so we took her pants off to avoid soaking them.
Of course one of those sneaky waves eventually came along and soaked her, but she didn't seem to mind.
We grabbed dinner in the city and then both girls passed out on the drive home-great day!
