News Developments

North Korea tests nuclear device, but more importantly events at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta were rained out again this morning.

Sunday evening’s balloon glow was restricted to a candle glow — burners, no actual balloons (in balloon speak, the envelopes weren’t inflated). The fireworks show went on as scheduled, though. I saw them from my plane on approach.

Sunday morning’s events and Saturday night’s America’s Challenge Gas Balloon Race launch had been canceled as well.

One thought on “News Developments”

  1. I heard the fireworks as I was falling asleep last night.

    The rain had me pretty bummed Saturday morning. I know ABQ natives are all bah-humbug-gy about Balloon Fiesta, but dammit, I just got here, and I was reeeally looking forward to it.

    No balloons for me, though.

    Effing rain.

    Feh.
