Landscape - San Diego from Above

San Diego, named after Saint Didacus (Spanish: Diego de Alcalá), is the eighth-largest city in the United States and second-largest city in California.


This beeeeautiful city has been my home for the last nine years. During this time I have met some interesting people... I have built some strong friendships including my bestfriend and love, John.


In a few months John & I will be moving to Long Island, NY. But before that weather transition happens, we decided we needed to bring some good memories from the city where we met. 
So, last week John rode his bird from Camp Pedlenton to the Centennial Naval Aviation in Coronado. On his way he captured the most beautiful pictures of this majestic Coast. I couldn't help but edited a few shots and share them with y'all!

Wonderful job, Love!

Centennial of Naval Aviation in San Diego

Last Saturday I spent my day with John at the 100 years of Naval Aviation in the North Island.
Since 1911 the Island has supplied the heartbeat of Navy Flying.

The nation's first aircraft carrier came here. Lots of pilots learn their crafts here through WWI & WWII.


The forerunner Navy's Blue Angels precision team was also born in San Diego.


San Diego has now the largest concentration of Navy and Marine Corps might. Planes and helicopters from North Island still head to sea aboard aircraft carriers on deployments around the world.
