Lake Havasu City Arizona Balloon Festival

This morning our students at school watched, across the street at the local high school field, as hot air balloons were being inflated and and then slowly rose  into the air and sailed off.  The excitement from the students talking and pointing and asking questions was intense. What a wonderful experience for the students to be a part of.  This is the third year of the balloon fest in our city.  The last few days have been so cold with the winds blowing but this morning it was a little cool but such a beautiful day.  Just the right type of weather and more important, the right audience for the beautiful balloons filling the air.  What excitement! What a sight!  All the beautiful colors floating across the sky and what a wonderful learning experience!  The balloon fest will be going on until Monday with many activities over the weekend.

This picture was taken January 2012 of  Balloons being inflated
at Lake Havasu High School, across from our school.

The people in the balloons were talking to the people boating on the lake.

 These are just a few of the balloons that were cruising over Lake Havasu and the surrounding area this morning.

I am standing under the London Bride Looking out at these beautiful balloons.

These pictures were taken on Jan. 19, 2013 looking out at the bridge and the balloons.
