We left at noon to drive to Foley and stopped to shop at the Coleman outlet as they had a truckload sale on. From there we travelled down the highway to Gulf Shores and across to Pensacola.
We stopped to visit the Pensacola Naval Aviation Museum for 2 hours and didn’t see everything! We did watch an IMAX movie about helicopters used in rescues. IMAX movies are always so spectacular. We had to pay $8 each to get into the movie though.

Since entrance to the museum is free, we’ll head back tomorrow as we want to finish viewing the exhibits and watch the new IMAX film of photography taken from the Hubble Telescope.
The airplanes are so numerous, they hang from the ceiling and are parked on the floor. Your head is always on a swivel to see everything.
The aircraft range from the vintage early 1900's to modern war birds.
