Wairarapa Hot Air Balloon Festival - New Zealand

3/4/2016

0 Comments

 
So we drove up to Masterton Saturday morning to go and see the Wairarapa Hot Air Balloon Festival :) It was on from Thursday already and went through to Monday, but the Saturday night was to be the big evening, with all the balloons at the showgrounds, all lit up and pretty :) ... Well, there was a massive turnout in support of the festival. Just awesome to see families out, enjoying the music and entertainment :) ... Sadly, the weather did however not play along :( Winds were just too strong, and it just wasn't safe to get the balloons up. By 9pm they called it ... and you know, that's just one of those things I guess ... a shame, but safety first. So, we ended up being treated to a bit of a "burnout display" ;) I've put together a little clip  for you ;) ... Don't you just love all the "dragon puffs"? ;)
Sunday morning we were up at around 6am and made our way to Martinborough (really not far) to see the balloons up at sunrise, flying over the Town Square :) ... At this stage I think I should confess - this was a biggy off my bucket list :) I've never seen hot air balloons (except for the real estate agents' advertising ones ;) lol) This was just so pretty :) And 40 years old or not - I felt like a giddy little kid watching these colourful balloons drifting through the early morning skies :)
