Balloon Fiesta 2012, Albuquerque




Dawn Patrol:  Our day started on the field at 5:45 am when the first five balloons of the day fire up and check out the skies. It was awesome to be right there in the middle of it all!




Up close and personal!!!!


Up, up, and away!!! 550 balloons take to the sky.


What goes up must come down--right in the middle of the parking lot! We watched seven balloons sail just over the coaches and down behind us. Anyone close grabbed the gondola and pulled it to a safe place to deflate. What an experience!
