Tall ship returns to Pensacola | pnj.com | Pensacola News Journal: "On Wednesday, a 'floating embassy' will make waves in Pensacola.

The Spanish tall ship Juan Sebastian de Elcano will arrive at the Port of Pensacola about 9 a.m. as part of the city's 450th anniversary and the 60th annual Fiesta of Five Flags celebration.

A 21-gun salute, cannon fire and a flyover by the Blue Angels will help welcome the four-masted schooner. McGuire's Irish Pipe Band and the Pensacola Civic Band will play."
