Last month the navy base here had a huge celebration. It was the 100 years of aviation celebration. The traffic coming onto the island was backed up the 5 for miles!! We left the island and spent the day at the marina to clean and enjoy the boat. We actually had a great spot to see the planes of all vintages, sizes, formations and noise level fly over us. On the island the locals refer to the few seconds of extremely loud noise that occurs several times a day as the aircraft flies over as the "Sounds of Freedom". We really like that term and really don't mind the noise.
Today we spent on Point Loma watching the activity on the bay and the aircraft flying from the Naval base. Lots of folks were checking on their boats. No damage where we are. Just really wacked tidal moves. High tide and low tide occurred in rotation every 20 to 30 minutes over the course of 5 hours!!!

Tides must have been very strange. Sounds of Freedom...I love it!
