Air & Water Show 2015


The Chicago Air and Water Show features naval and aviation demonstrations from military and civilian teams. This is a 2 day event lasting the weekend with a practice run on Friday and no admission. We got there early Saturday morning, parked in a garage not far from Navy Pier and set up camp at Ohio Street beach.  Getting there early was the smartest thing we did.  We got the early bird special at the parking garage and we nearly got first choice at the beach.  We found a spot under the shade of a big tree on the cool sand, which was great because it was super hot that day! We came prepared with a blanket, chairs, and sandwiches.  Ohio Street had a decent view of the air show and so it got packed quickly. Aiden liked the show but I think he mostly enjoyed lying down on the cool sand, eating snacks and just chilling with one of his BFF’s who showed up later. It was definitely a good day.
