6:30 am waiting for the balloons

First Happy Hour at Balloon FestivalCaravan at Camping World waiting for everyone to assemble
Some of the above pictures are labeled and some not. I am still learning how to do this blog.
We have had a couple of good days to watch the Mass Ascension of the balloons. Yesterday (sat.) the wind sent them right over the coaches and today they went the other way. It is something to see.
Saturday afternoon we just sort of felt our way around the grounds but did have dinner at the Chasers Club, which is new this year, and then went to view the lift off the gas balloons which did not occur. The wind was more than they were willing to work with. The fireworks were nice but we came back and went to bed. Most of you know I am not an early riser so 6 am is EARLY. I got up again this morning to see them fly and by noon I was done. A nap was very helpful this afternoon and now we are just going to wait and see if the fireworks go according to schedule but I doubt it because of the wind.
More adventures are scheduled for Monday thru Wednesday and then on Thursday weather permitting the "special shapes" will fly. I am looking forward to seeing that.
Later,
