Blue Angels in San Francisco
It's that time of year in San Francisco where more than a few San Franciscans complain about the afternoon noise of the Navy's Blue Angels flying over the heights of San Francisco. Whether they are worried that the U.S. Navy is attacking San Francisco, worried about the carbon footprint of these elite fighters, annoyed by the extra traffic, the associated noise, or just had some extra 07:30:09 minutes on the cell phone without anyone to talk to, you can only hope that their complaints fall on deaf ears. This is one of the most interesting traditions that comes annually to San Francisco.
While there are many activities associated with fleet week which can be found at military.com, the main attraction for many is the airshow with the Blue Angels starting at about 3 pm on Saturday and Sunday. It is a great time to call up any friends who have a rooftop in the city and convince them to have a BBQ, head over to the Golden Gate Bridge, or to Crissy Field to be amazed by the skill of these elite pilots and the sheer power of their equipment.
The Blue Angels will be practicing during the afternoons on Thursday and Friday, but the main show will be from 3-4 pm on Saturday and Sunday. Come into the city early find a great place to relax and enjoy the show.
