Highland Village Balloon Festival

We went to the Highland Village Balloon Festival a couple of weeks ago. We went in the early morning because we thought there was going to be a launch. As it turns out, it was a balloon drop competition. The goal for the "drivers" was to get as close as possible to a large red X and drop a bean bag for their score. There were probably only two that managed to get close enough because of the winds.
In the evening, we went back for what was supposed to be a launch. However, because of high winds, the balloons couldn't take off. So to please all the crowds of people, they just inflated the balloons so everyone could see, take pics, and get up close! The kids really enjoyed it!
