Yesterday, the Toronto Air show was interesting, we found lost of parking...wow..that's a first!
Then, we scanned the usual area for our local "Chips" truck...nowhere to be seen *huge pout*
Then the show started, of course we enjoyed the planes as they zoomed over us and across the waterfront..
The highlight of the day were the Heavy Metal Team with the L-39 Albatross's and the MIG-17...gotta love the jets...
and of course our Snowbirds doing their "usual" routines...
It seemed thought it was lacking in some "umph"...who knows maybe they were saving the "ALL" for today.
All in all I love the tradition of going every year, my father used to take me when I was a kid and I used to scream at the thunderous noises of the jets..(they really did hurt my ears)
now they just make my heart beat a little faster and I love the rumble of the ground as they go past.
I can't believe folks complained about the noise and they have scaled down the louder planes....grrrr that's why we go...!!! and its only once a year...
oh well, I love the air show, I love our Canadian Forces and I love being Canadian...the Air Show is a "Canadian Tradition" as is the CNE...and I hope they never stop.
I had to get that off my chest
enjoy the day
