They dip the balloons in the water before landing.

But being in one is terrifying. I went up in one once, and I just sat in the bottom of the basket and peeked out the little holes in the side, lol.

You're in CO, right? Driving distance! It is genuinely one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

It was so fun seeing the city from above although our landing was a little rough. Beautiful!

I really wanted to pony up for a ride at the last time we went to the Balloon Fiesta, but H wasn't down for that at all. Boo.

Yep! We're just up in Steamboat this weekend.

The one in Albuquerque?

My mom moved there last year. I think I'm going to fly down for it this year!

Definitely going to take a ride when I go. It looks so cool!

Me too!

I was irrationally excited that we were able to find it while it was still on the ground and watch them set up. I have about 50 photos of it being inflated.

And the bees!!! I love Balloon Fiesta

That's shitty to have to deal with that weather. It's usually a really great time of year for weather here, so those kinds of cancellations are a fluke. And, it is sad that there usually is an accident or two throughout the week

My dad took me to the one in steamboat when I was 7. My mom didn't let me go up in one. Dad and I just finally went up in a balloon a few years ago and it was fun! Turns out the propane gives me a massive headache, but I tried to ignore it.

I gave my dad a photo cube of an assortment of our Colorado trip when i was 7 and the adult balloon trip.
