Today and tomorrow the downtown St Petersburg skies are filled with excitement. As I showed a luxury downtown condo at Parkshore Plaza this afternoon we watched the aerial aerobics from the balcony. Find photos, schedules and lots of information at www.stpetersburgairfest.com
There are stunts and displays and even a World War II re-enactment. You can buy tickets and enjoy it close-up or you can view the aerial show from The Pier or various downtown parks.
This is also an opportunity to view the new air terminal - completed but not yet opened - at Albert Whitted Airport in downtown St Pete.
Years ago John Galbraith of Templeton Funds chose to live in St Petersburg because he could fly in and walk to both his home (a condo in Bayfront Towers) and his office. St Pete was lucky - the Galbraiths have been significant benefactors to the community.
Rolando - it's a great way to show one of the benefits of living in the downtown luxury condos.
Loud, now deaf - I'm sorry to hear that. Perhaps you'll consider coming back next year but watching from the Pier approach or somewhere further from the loud speakers. I enjoy watching the Grand Prix, but not from the ground level which I find too noisy.
