Entering Ballon Fiesta Park at dawn
|
Ballooners and gawkers are all mixed up on the fairway
|
We sat down beside a huge beer stein to have a picnic breakfast
|
Plenty of pictures of the beer stein inflating
|
The Dawn Patrol. They get to launch before dawn to check out flying conditions
|
|
This is a special shapes ascention. We tend to prefer balloon-shaped balloons, but we seem to only have time to go on days that feature special shapes :).

The beer stein is up!

|
The beer stein is aloft!
|
Getting just high enough to reach the sunlight
|
High up in the sunlight
|
Couldn't miss the tetrahedron
|
|
We also appreciated the haunted house
|
|
|
Wicked Witch of the West. We think.
|
Cactaur!
