We headed out to Balloon Fiesta again this weekend. Mark's sister and her family were here for a visit. We made it to the field around 6:30 a.m. after another hour-long traffic jam. Note to self: leave earlier next year. We went through some rain on the way in. The winds were calm though so we were hopeful that the Special Shapes would go up.We learned on our way in to breakfast that the 'official' morning event was canceled due to lightening in the area. However, balloon pilots aren't ones to disappoint a crowd. Many of the balloon inflated even if they didn't take to the skies. We had a great time wandering around the field from balloon to balloon, collecting cards and marveling at the process. Here are a few of our favorites:
And this is really what it's all about! Look at those smiles.
