I think that everyone that appreciates this festival owes a great big THANK YOU to the pilots and the owners of these balloons. They take a good deal of time from their lives and a fair amount of money out of their pockets to put this festival on. Those certificates and the cards they give to the kids aren't free and yet they do it anyway. This one is definitely on the bucket list. Keep the good stuff coming guys.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

Our pleasure! Thank you.

My brother was a balloon pilot. He even wove his own balloon basket. Eventually he got his commercial license and loved taking people above the beautiful Colorado Rocky Mountains. What a thrill!!

@stephaniegaddis1716 5 месяцев назад

I had no idea there was a hot air balloon museum!! {Adds to bucket list} Last year my youngest boys (7 & 9 then) took their first plane ride. Like any good homeschoolers we did a unit study on aeronautics before our trip, and started with hot air balloons. The New England Air Museum (near Hartford, Connecticut) has a hot air balloon basket from 1870. I canNOT imagine going up in the air in it!! They also have a GoodYear Blimp car from 1942. It's wild to think how quickly aeronautics technology transformed modern life!!

That's so cool. Your kids totally won the parents jackpot with all the amazing things they're getting to experience.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

Thank you.

@snowbirdlady7221 5 месяцев назад

How fun! You showed the Fiesta very well. My best friend and her husband live very near the balloon park so I've been able to go. It was exciting and fascinating and so fun to see all the special shapes. Sometimes we just have brunch on the patio and watch the balloons going over. It really is a treat!

@debbiecarter4558 5 месяцев назад

Your joy and happiness really showed in this video, I was smiling the whole time I watched...

One day we'll make it to the festival. We've driven past it by accident. Quit an amazing sight. Great video.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

It is amazing.

@allens7476 5 месяцев назад

OMG! I was there. It was a bucket list for me and it’s awesome. I was in the lot behind the museum. I gotta say, your video was better than what I saw. You went everywhere, and I stayed with the RV. I’m passing this to my friends who saw my pictures, yours was better. I got choked up just remembering so much of what you presented.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

It is so awesome out on the field. Thank you.

Great video! We happened to be passing through Albuquerque while the Balloon Fiesta was taking place this past October, but it was around noon and we literally saw nothing of the Fiesta. The eclipse the next morning was pretty amazing, though. Thanks for letting us see what we missed.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

Yes most of the activity is first thing in the morning.

Yes, so WOW... I went for 51st in Oct 2023. It's really hard to get camper rsv. There's a reason that one you toured doesn't go up [noone is to walk on the fabric]. I was so blessed to get on a crew with perfect weather for most of the week. Pilots are awesome great people, they love their balloons. Thanks so much for your video, go great.

I am a student pilot( just started as student in 2020) and am there every year for the last 10 years as crew for my mentors, their balloon is Patience if you have have your book. The box is rare. I know many of the pilots, the bees are from here in Az so I hang out with them often

So cool, my wife and I were at her grandmas house for New Year’s Eve weekend and in the city there which is not very big at all they had a hi there balloon extravaganza, where we could see around 15 to 20 hot air balloons right outside grandmas window out the backyard.

@shirleyschutt3959 5 месяцев назад

I know guys love the balloon fiesta. we live here locally and just heard on the news that they are eliminating some RV spots close to the park as to make for more parking. Hope you guy get a good spot if you come in 2024

@RVMediaCreators 5 месяцев назад

This is such an amazing experience. I went in 2019 with FTF and the experience was magical. I even got to crew on a balloon and fly in one. I can’t wait to to go to the balloon fiesta again.

@leroiandmarie 5 месяцев назад

That was great. We LOVE balloon fiestas. Hopefully one day our videos will come out as epic as this one!

Great video! Nice and how fun to go up in a ballon! Nice Marissa went up in a ballon with her sister. The ballon museum looked cool to see. Happy engagement anniversary. That looked beautiful seeing the glowing ballons of the Night Glowdeo. The fireworks were awesome. Oh how nice to see the ballon fest from your Rv. Hope you all have a great safe and Happy Nee Year!

@michelleh.6363 5 месяцев назад

I think every year you go and share the balloon experience with us, and is one of my favorites to watch! My husband has worked for Wonder Bread (owners have changed) for over 35 years now and it was great to see it there…on my bucket list for sure…I think they do a balloon fest. in Miamisburg, Ohio (? My sister has gone to it before). Must just be locals getting together but hey I’d love to go to it as well…Happy New Year! 🎉👍😊💕🙏🇺🇸🐾

@paulafields3711 5 месяцев назад

Yes, they do one in Ohio. 👍

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

What great coverage of this event! So interesting to watch through your family's eyes. How sweet that you proposed in a hot air balloon. 🥰Jim has been up in hot air balloons several times over the years. I had never been in one, until last December. It was an incredible experience! We did a video on it. Happy New Year to all of you! -Michelle

@ceciliapetrowsky2572 4 месяца назад

This video was unbelievable! We were at the balloon fest a number of years ago but didn’t even know they had a museum. unfortunately we were only there one day and didn’t see all of the nighttime festivities. happy that Marissa and McKenzie got to fly in a balloon but that was way too high for me. BTW, I thought you guys were taking a break because I have not been notified of your video uploads even though I have the bell on. I have some catching up to do.

@RVanJourney 4 месяца назад

My friend got two spots for the 2024 Fiesta, I plan to use one of the site. Can you provide any info on the check in process and if I will have any issues checking in on one of his two reservations ? We always enjoy your channel and your approach to travel.

@cindiallain8542 5 месяцев назад

This is so cool to watch. I would want to lay on the ground in a chair and watch them go up. I don’t want to be on them lol well if it would stay on the ground I wouldn’t mind being on it. It would be mesmerizing to me. We have balloons at night on the river in my town. It is crazy seeing them all. I’m not great in crowds so I watch from afar. That sloth is really cool. I have a sloth night shirt if you would be interested. It’s big but he might like it, it’s never been worn as I ordered the wrong animal. It’s an adult but not huge. Just thought if you were interested we could figure it out if interested. Not sure if you’ve been to Wisconsin on your travels or not. Does your daughter have a spirit animal? So when the balloons are in the air can they come down for fuel? The mighty jets bless your trails. How cool. How cool that looks! I’ve probably said that afew times. lol that would be so cool when they light up at night😊. Hey if yall ever need a nanny on ip give me a ring. lol I’d love to help you. Trent and Siobhán know me. Nathan. What cause them to come down? Thank you for the video. Sorry for the book.

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

We suppose they can come down for fuel, it's the hot air that keeps them up.

@exploringnewhites 5 месяцев назад

Was Hensley sad about not being able to go up in the balloon, or worried about Momma, or both? 🥰

@leroiandmarie 5 месяцев назад

I'm thinking both! 8)

@LessJunkMoreJourney 5 месяцев назад

It was both. 😀
