Our next stop at Palafox Pier Yacht Harbor, which is a newer marina at Pensacola. Pensacola, nicknamed the city of "five flags" has a rich history, picturesque old downtown area and is home to the Blue Angels at Pensacola Naval Air Station. We took a tour at the National Naval Aviation Museum, one of the world’s largest aviation museums. Located at the Naval Air Station Pensacola, this historic treasure boasts more than 150 beautifully restored aircraft, hands-on exhibits and more than 4,000 artifacts representing Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard aviation. We had a thrill when we watched the Blue Angles at the IMAX Theatre and then later practicing live in the skies above. The tour was fascinating!
