Blue angels at seafaiR

August 1, 2008

The Blue Angels were in town for Seattle's annual summer festival, Seafair. So Brooke's parents came over for the day to help us do some work on the house, and to go to Lake Washington and watch the Blue Angels fly. It turned out to be a gret day to go, since it was a Friday and most people were at work. We showed up a few minutes before they started and got a great spot to watch right on the edge of the lake.

After the Blue Angels finished, we started walking back to our car when a plane from the Air National Guard started doing aerobatics. So we stopped to watch that and I got a few pictures of that performance as well.

Before the Blue Angels flew, an A-10 and P-51 Mustang were showing off.
			This was a high speed pass. You can see the shockwaves above the canopy and above and below the fuselage at the trailing edge of the wing.
