Well today started early, around 4:30 AM we rolled out of bed and threw on some warm clothes and hopped in the car to go to balloon fiesta. Today was the special shapes rodeo and there were certainly some unusual balloons we saw dragons, bees, sunflowers, strawberries too many to name really. Then Ken and Mandy and the kids stayed and watched the flying competition where a couple hundred balloons fly really low and try to grab a prize off a pole. Kinda cool or holy flying cow!
This balloon came from Switzerland, it was a Dom that was having a hard time getting the left tower filled with hot air.
Finally, we have lift off. The cow's behind the Dom but she's about to lift off too.
This one looked like a ginormous octopus with a bunch of seafood stuck to it.
The Big cow almost ready and finally it went right over our heads.
Thanks Mandy, Dallin and (even though you slept the whole time) Mia for coming and sharing the Fiesta with us.
Almost forgot this was the competition, they fly really low before they switch back and go up again.
