This morning we went to the annual Lewiston/Auburn Balloon Festival. For the first time! What took us so long? Easy parking, manageable crowd, nice balloons. We watched lots of them set up and take off.
 |
| They start by laying out the basket and balloon. |
 |
| Then blow air into the balloon with big fans. |
 |
| Once air is in, the burners heat it. |
 |
| causing the hot air inside to make the balloon lighter than the outside, colder air. |
 |
| and off they fly |
 |
| filling the air and drifting away |
 |
| There were 2 sculpture type balloons, but the penguin was having trouble. |
