Went to the Balloon Festival my state was having yesterday. Took around 20 photos (but left the 2 of spider-pig out since they didn't turn out well). I'm sure my phone hates me for taking so many. |D
The launch begins.
The wind was sending some of them overhead.
Some had obvious product placement. |D The Pepsi can was cool though.
They were dropping chocolate. @_@ I wish I'd been in that section of the crowd.
That Snapple bottle isn't a hot air balloon. It's just a balloon over the Snapple booth. |D
Spot the tuxedo.
That butterfly was the most complicated one there.
The shark was freaking me out with how high it went. o_o
Cool Sony camera penguin is cool.
And here's one of the video clips I took. Liked this one the best.
So many! That must have been really fun. I want to go to one some day; in my area we have a lot of hot air balloons during the summer taking off from the park, but never a big festival like that.
@Dag: It was interesting. And there was a sort of flea market/bazaar set up to walk around before the balloons went up. I don't think I'd seen hot air balloons "in person" before that either, so it was cool to see that many at once. =]
@knsm073: From the way the crowd was cheering, I think it was a lot of people's favorite too. XD The tail kind of flapped a bit at first.
Oooh, that must have been awesome! I would love to go to something like that as well, I don't think I've ever saw a hot air balloon...I think they are really dreamlike somehow - the various colours against the sky makes them look so pretty *u*
So many! That must have been
My favorite is the shark.
