Yes, I saw them yesterday, practicing for the big show on the weekend. I was crossing the Golden Gate Bridge about 1:30 yesterday afternoon, and for some reason never expected to see a couple of the Blue Angels almost at eye level just ahead of me as they practiced buzzing the bridge.

There will be quite a crowd to see the action. We did a GTG a few years ago. It was a super day.

Too bad the Red Bull Air Race was in San Diego this year. I was really looking forward to it.

We went last year! And got some cool shots. The following links ARE NOT my photos. They are just better that what I shot.

Saw one of the Blue Angels buzz the Golden Gate bridge.

And skim the water at about 50' or less(sure seemed closer to the water than that!).

As he was passing his wing vortices were pulling vapor up from the water!
