Plano Balloon Festival 2013

 

21 Sept 2013

  

I am super excited about catching the annual Plano Balloon Festival this year!

Last year, Xavier was sick so had to give it a miss

so this year... here we go, our first balloon experience!

 

 

 

Reached around 5.30pm and we got to sit in front of the balloon launch area

(Thanks to Winnie for getting such a good spot)

Xavier was fascinated and excited about the balloons

He kept saying "big big balloon" and "Hot balloon"

 

Waiting patiently for the event to start

 

 

Can't leave his eyes from the balloons

 

 

 

 

Finally the event started - Sky divers

 

 

 

 

Setting up of the hot air balloon.. lots of pics

But too bad, the balloon didn't get to launch due to weather

We stayed till the end for the fireworks

It was spectacular and definitely worth the wait

the fireworks finale really made the experience complete
