In case you didn't notice those F/A-18 Hornets flying right over the Presidio yesterday for practice, you should know that this weekend is Fleet Week!So where is the best place to watch the Blue Angels et al perform? Crissy Field, the small hill near Pier 39, and the roofdecks of Marina apartment buildings will likely be the most crowded spots. Also, the bay is likely to be filled with chartered boats, which in itself is interesting to see. Unfortunately, because of structural instability on the Piers, the box seats this year will be crowding the front of Marina Green. But for $25 you can grab a reserved seat there yourself.
Anyone going to be watching the air show from the Main Post area? Send me your pictures and I will post them here!
