The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta started this morning with balloons launching off from every elementary school in the area. When balloons go over your head like this one coming over my house, it just takes my breath away. We have so much beauty from God to appreciate, but this is one of my favorite man made beauties on earth. We are fortunate to see a few hot air balloons almost every day of the year, but to see them in such quantity it is incredible bling in the sky. The first Friday morning of the fiesta is a great start to the week. The elementary school, a couple blocks away from us, sells hot chocolate and breakfast burritos so it is a terrific fundraiser. The children are so excited to see the balloons being inflated and take off from their playgrounds. It is a sight!
I took this photo of the woven hot air balloon basket years ago at either a St. Louis Basket convention or Kansas City Basket convention. I didn't weave it and I'm sorry I don't know who its creator was, but what a perfect basket to show you a picture of today!
