Day 26: The Blue Angels
While in Pensacola we enjoyed a great morning at the Naval Air Station . We went to the National Naval Aviation Museum . It is FREE admission and has planes, special exhibits, simulators and a nice kid's play area. They also have a FREE 45 minute trolley tour to see other aircraft outside. We did not have time for the trolley ride, but we did get to go inside the new hangar bay which had Vietnam era aircraft as well as a Marine One Presidential Helicopter. A view of one side of the main museum from the 2nd floor balcony. There are exhibits on both floors as well as a new hangar. There are several Blue Angel planes on display in the atrium as well as on the base. They also have planes for children and adults to sit in near the front entrance.
