'09 Balloon Classic

We made it to Memorial Park for the 33rd Annual Colorado Balloon Classic this morning. It was a really nice experience. There was a bit of fog that delayed the start, but we had a nice time watching the balloons inflate & launch. The event is free to the public every Labor Day weekend. There are many vendors, so we got some yummy mini donuts & coffee to get the morning going. Also, we brought along some snacks. Parking is where you can find it on neighborhood side streets, or you can pay to park in lots that are set up in the area. We were lucky to find a spot just 2 blocks north on Bijou. If you are in the area or just love hot air balloons, this is a great event.
