Today we got up at four and headed to downtown Albuquerque. We parked our bikes at a trailhead and rode the bike trail about 3 miles into the fiesta field we went to our lot V6 and waited for almost an hour for the rest of the team to show up. We were also able to see the drone show as we came into the park and then when daylight came We watched a plane show overhead. Our balloon pilot is Kiko from Brazil And his balloon is called rat cheese. There are four other balloons there from Brazil and they appear to work closely. Two areas, one is a Candy house. And the fourth is Cogsworth from beauty and the beast. The flag stayed yellow for quite a while and when it finally turned green the crowds erupted and cheers. The standard balloons went up, but the shape balloons did not because they are bigger and it makes them harder to go up and also to land. I made the best of my time by wandering around taking some photos which is not hard to do at the fiesta Scotty hung around the balloons and helped unroll Cogsworth as they were going to do a static display, but never did.
A place where I can yak about my yakking! Now that we're both retired, we're hoping to travel more so this blog will include land based trips also!
