We got up at 5:00 a.m. to get the bus to go and watch the Dawn Patrol and the first Mass Balloon Ascension for 2016. It is dark here in the morning and we really didn’t know where were going other than north.
The bus picked us up just 5 motor homes from our sight and dropped us off 50 feet from the launch field gate. The RV parking field is right across the street from the festival area they have bus lanes so getting to the park and return is rather quick. I understand to walk from where we are is a mile or a mile and a half depending on who you talk to. I’ll look on a map and figure it out or walk it later in the week. Oh, by the way all questions have at least two answers, depending on who you talk too.
We were on the balloon field from 5:45 to 9:30 and only got to see a few of the balloons. You get to stand on the launch field right next to and between the balloons. It is really neat event and we are glad we came.

You can see where we walked.
Stayed on one spot and watched balloons going up around us.
This is where we are parked.
This is a great location, we seem to have more space then many other areas of the RV park.
Here are some of the balloons lit up in the morning.

Here is the campsite Richard and I set up between our motor homes.
