Tour the Air Force Academy 1

The chapel there is a must-see! While you’re there, visit the hiking trails, the Honor Court, Arnold Hall, the Cadet Field House, Falcon Athletic Center, Falcon Stadium, the Association of Graduates building and the Visitor Center. The cadet areas like the terrazzo have been off limits since 9-11. The area is gorgeous, and even if you’re an army family (my kids shouted “go West Point!” when we took a picture there… seriously, without prompting. Sigh.), it’s easy to appreciate the splendor of this service academy.
