I saw the underbelly of fighter jets. I was that close (not sure really how close). I was dumbfounded. How can they fly so close to the ground?

I live in Oakland and almost every year, I can hear the blue angels practicing. It’s more of a nuisance since they’re so loud. I’ve never considered going to see them in person. A bunch of jets in the sky…what’s the fascination? I didn’t understand till my brother took my mom and I to view them in HB.

Wooooooosh! It’s been forever since I felt this excited and full of wonder. To be witness to that kind of flying, to be that close, it was thrilling. Car alarms were constantly going off due to the vibration.

The speed, their flying in formation, all of it was nothing short of amazing.
