First Day at Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta

This is going to be a short post but I wanted to get some pictures published. 
We arrived yesterday for a 10 day stay at the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Advertised as being one of the largest in the world.

All the pictures today were taken from the campground and sitting in front of our motorhome.

This morning we got up at 5:am to watch the Dawn Patrol and Morning Glow.  Kind of hard to get any good pictures in the dark. 

After the Morning Glow there was a Mass Ascension.  The balloons started rising at 7am and stopped at about 9am.  There was no way to get them all in one shot or even a dozen shots.  Most of them came right over the campground.. It was amazing!!!!!!

I am attaching a link to the pictures we took this morning.

WARNING....there are lots of them.
(by the time we leave the fiesta some of you will probably be very tired of seeing balloons)

Enjoy
