Jan 26, '06 12:54 AM
for everyone

Since the 2006 Balloon festival is gonna be happening soon, I thought it appropriate to post my pics from last year's BalloonFest

Just a bunch of guys with a lot of hot air

Wow, you got some big balloons...

How nationalistic can you get

Just as I thought - the government's just full of hot air.

About to take off

I've heard of graffitti, but this is ridiculous

one of these things is not like the others...

Up, up and away, in my beautiful, my beautiful balloon....

Hey, lookit me! I'm flying!

Okay, now which way is your house?

Hey, Karen! Howe're you?

A bunch of my friends are going to the balloon festival this feb 11. Coz they wanna take a ride on one, I think. You wanna go? Bring some of the others - the more the many-er. Also, if there's enough people to go, we can actually rent a van, and it won't cost much per person.

That would be cool! What time and *ahem* how much will that cost? ;)

Well, I need to know how many of you guys will be going so I can estimate the cost. And are you OK for Feb 11 or for Feb 12? Lemme know as soon as you can. You can just email me privately if you want.

heheh. You will notice that the pics were posted ages ago. Haven't been too conscientious in posting. I will try and do better, and post more pics :)
