Folks, we’ve been sleeping on Pensacola. What an incredible town. Full of history, cool food, and it’s gorgeous. Made my way downtown to look around earlier. Stopped off at @5sistersblues for some eats. It didn’t disappoint. 1/ 
But I had zero idea about Pensacola’s ties to the Blues. 2/
It’s a religious town, too. And if you dig church architecture, you’re in for a treat. 3/
There’s also an embrace of the city’s colonial past, as depicted in this, uh, creatively written history of the American Revolution. 4/
Andrew Jackson was here to receive Spain’s claim to Florida. I stumbled upon this spot. 5/
There’s also a host of museums that the very nice man on the naval base told me about as he directed me off the property, so maybe next time on those. (Apparently they’re all closed to non military personnel at the moment- I was headed to the lighthouse) 6/
There’s also a ton of pelicans around that have been decorated in different styles. I really like the art of the Pacific Northwest, so I liked this homage. (I don’t know anything of the artist.) I’ll post more as I see it over the next couple days. 7/
