Patriots Day


Fleet Week Saturday, observed from the deck of museum ship “Balclutha”, yielded a few nice views of the Patriots, an aircrobatics team from California, performing stunts high up in the sky...


...and right above the waterline, zipping past Alcatraz trailed by a cloud of smoke.


Boeing 747 captains typically are required to fly a little higher, too, but with United Airlines forking over sponsor money, Fleet Week organizers made an exception. Much appreciated.
