If you like aircraft the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola is a "must see." They feature an incredible number of exhibits of not only aircraft and space vehicles, but other historical information on wars and hard-fought campaigns, prison camps, etc. Also, during the air-show season, the Blue Angels hold practice shows which can be viewed from stands behind the Museum. (Be sure to check ahead for practice show dates and times.)
