I Feel the Need....The Need For Speed!

Usually we are in Vegas over the 3rd weekend in October for the Monster Energy Cup Supercross race.  This year I asked if we could stay home - it's such a long flight just for a 3 day weekend.  I wanted to do something different and the boys (along with Uncle Jason) are headed to Daytona for the Supercross race this winter.

Because we stayed home, we were able to catch the Sea and Sky Air Show.  This year they were at the beach.  Every other year they switch from NAS Jax to the beach for the show location.  We got to watch the jets practice Thurs and Fri before the 2 weekend shows.  

The Blue Angels were the big headliner.  The BA went into Providence and spoke to the Upper School.  Ra was pretty excited about that.  He came home telling me all about the pilots, the planes, etc.  We saw them practicing over our house and they were flying over our car on the way home.  We headed out to the beach and got buzzed a few times before practice was over.

Saturday morning we loaded up our bikes and rode down to Jax Beach to get a better view of the show.  There were paratroopers, bi planes, sky writers, jets, etc.  We had a blast!  We packed a lunch and spent the entire day on the beach being entertained by the show.  

The stars of the show!

These two are super cute...Such good friends.

The show also took place on Sunday as well so around 2:30 we headed down our street to the beach to check out the Blue Angel show one last time.  It was great to see it from both locations.  We saw more in Jax Beach, we we got overhead fly bys in Atlantic Beach.
