Seeing them on TV, especially in features in National Geographic (not exactly sure about it) and Discovery Channel makes me feel so young at heart! I know that they are huge and they run on winds and hydrogen, but seeing them right before my eyes is definitely an altogether different experience.
Together with my Flickr friends, we started our travel from Quezon Avenue to Clark at 4:00 Am and arrived before 6 AM. It was my first time to attend the Hot Air Balloon Fiesta last February 15, and was just surprised to so many cars and people lining up!
But we were lucky to have a friend's friend to buy tickets for us so the queuing up was a little shorter. Thank God! or else we would not see the preparation and the start. It was worth the heat, the confusion, and physical fatigue....it was indeed an awesome experience! I might go there again next year and bring my sons with me!

About Inkblots: Life Unraveled
- INKBLOTS
- In the life-long quest for coming up with realistic notions about life, this blog ponders and threshes out my advocacies, thoughts, feelings observations, and anything about mundane existence that I perceive to be worthy of the sagacity of the mind and curiosity of the soul. This blog is inspired by Rorschach's (pronounced as 'ror-shak') Inkblots Test, which is a projective technique in psychological testing. The inkblots convey personal meanings to different people.
