Headed out for a special trip to Virginia Beach for a three day trip. Took this photo of the beach at sunrise which is always a neat time to see the area.
Sunrises are beautiful on the water and it is really nice to be there. As for the crowds during the week it was not really bad. That is soon to change with summer getting closer and closer but so far it is not real bad.
We made a stop at the Virginia Military Aviation Museum which was a first time trip. Amazing collection of World War 2 aircraft and in addition they have one of the (if not THE) biggest collection of World War 2 Russian aircraft. I saw a number of things I have never seen there, and I have seen a number of aircraft over the years. This plane at left is a replica of the first Navy plane to land and take off on a carrier.
Most of the World War 1 planes at the Virginia Military Aviation Museum are replicas. NOT a replica were the F-18s which were flying around Virginia Beach. It was pretty cool seeing them zooming around the area. The base is not far from the hotels of Virginia Beach.
As both Debbie and I are Navy veterans it was fun to enjoy this, and in fact a few months ago we were at the air show held at the base (which is held pretty much every year). I have been there for a few of them. It was a ton of fun and I have some photos on this page.
The main reason to go to the area was that Debbie and I got married. It was a wonderful ceremony and I am very happy to have this wonderful woman as my wife.
I hope that we are going to have a wonderful life together and I am looking very forward to the future.
I love Debbie very, very much!!!
