That looks really fun. I came close to going there to see them lite up at dusk, but chose not to.
Now I'm second guessing myself.

Did you fork out the bread to ride one?

Sean said...

I'd call this QUITE a digression from the usual for you... but I love the whimsy of it all... and the COLORS!

I don't go up in things that have to be fired by furnaces to make them fly...but I like to watch, and take photos...

Very colorful; excellent shots; looks like Disneyland on parade. Amazing the many varieties of balloons!

Those overgrown stuffed toys didn't really lift off, did they?

I've been hot air ballooning (as a passenger). It's quite a skill.

Wow! What a great and fun weekend. Wonderful photos! I also never seen a balloon as big as those. I love all them, but principally the house!

Fascinating to look at but my first thought was "You couldn't pay me to get in one of those things."
