How many balloons?
I got up insanely early last Saturday to go to the Adirondack Balloon Festival in Glens Falls, NY. It should have taken me about 50 minutes to get there, and I gave myself plenty of extra time, as I wanted to be there for the sunrise when the balloons started lifting off. Unfortunately, no one told me that apparently everyone on the East Coast goes to this balloon festival, so it took about 1.5 hours to go the last 2 miles. I couldn't believe how many people there were!
Shortly after I took this picture, that bank of fog in the background rolled in and most of the balloons that were going to take off shut down again. It was a fun time, but if you plan on going, you'd better leave early!
