Yea!! The balloons were given the green flag, and
let the inflation begin! Here are some
sights from the field where the balloons were inflating and taking off….
At the beginning of
each day, the Star Spangled Banner is sung and the first balloon up carries the
American flag. Lovely morning sight…..
It was a very cool
sight to see the American flag balloon flying into what looked like the
sun! Doesn’t this image give you a sense
of the freedom that the balloonist must feel as he/she floats above the fray?
One of the great
things about this hot air balloon gathering is that the general public gets to
be down on the field next to the inflating balloons. As I looked around at all the balloons that
were beginning to inflate, I noticed this little girl meeting what I’m guessing
is her first hot air balloon, up close and personal! Only one of many fun moments at the Fiesta!
Enjoy!
