After last year’s wash-out – and the fact that it was chucking it down in the way – I was a bit skeptical about the Bournemouth Air Festival.
But the sun came out, the boys built their sandcastles and dug a hole, and we even had a swim in the sea.and then came the plane – Spitfires, Lancaster and the Red Arrows. The displays were amazing – just make sure you take your sunglasses!
Of course, this year was marred by the sad death of one of the Red Arrows pilots – its dreadful to think that we watched an amazing display and then this tragedy happened.
But the festival is more than just the air shows – there are displays and shows in the gardens, and firework displays in the evening. There’s plenty going on, but a nice relaxing time on the beach is also a perfect way to spend the day.
I would thoroughly recommend spending a weekend by the seaside if you get the chance. Check out the website for more info www.bournemouthair.co.uk
