Anyone else find them beautiful?

We have a festival today where over 25 balloons take off at once. We go every year and it was like pulling teeth to get today off.

If anyone is interested, I will post some pictures of them after we get home
.

Oh, and they have fair food there. Gotta get me some Italian sausage sandwiches.

I think they are gorgeous. There was a show about the New Mexico Balloon festival on PBS years ago. I wish I could find it now. I love how beautiful they are when they light them at night.

Went up in one with the ex for our anniversary. We were up in the gold country of CA. We stayed at a B&B which had the balloon ride built in. It was magical.

The hot air balloon festival is this weekend in my town too! When they fly over my house, the whooshing noise scares Maggie! She hides in the basement.
