Hey, Sailor


It's Fleet Week! So many sailors, so little time. (hee hee). And yet, Phil is the only sailor we have seen lately, and I'm not so sure he counts so much as a sailor anymore. Oh well. We did get to see the Blue Angels though. Instead of going into the city and being trapped over there all day, we decided to check out the view of the airshow from our new favorite park (see below). Obviously the "showbox" is near Fisherman's Wharf, and that is the best view, especially for the tricks, but the Blue Angels have to go somewhere to regroup and it turned out to be over our heads! The flyovers were really cool. Alex was able to track the planes, but wasn't overly enthralled by them. Maybe in a couple more years. And even with a big event going on just across the water, the park was relatively quiet.

P.S. The guy from Oakland who took our family pic called Phil "Bro". It was classic!
