51st Annual Air and Water Show





The annual Air and Water show is in the books. The weather mostly worked out for the event. I went down on Saturday and despite the haze from the pollution it was a fun show. The sun was behind clouds more so than out and with a lake breeze it was a pleasant four hours outside. Sunday appeared to be more problematic for those that went. Several rain showers and an approaching Thunderstorm force the Thunderbirds to move up their act.

I was almost at the north entrance at Navy Pier and though the foucs of the event is at North Avenue Beach, you can get a good view of the big acts like the Thunderbirds. Above is several shots I took at the event
