Balloon Glow


In the fall, St. Louis hosts a Hot Air Ballon Race. They send the Energizer Bunny balloon off as the "hare" and then 15 minutes later the "hound" balloons--about 70 of them--take off after it. Winner is the first balloon to catches the 'hare.' The night before the race they put on an event called the Balloon Glow. They light up all the balloons with their burners so you can see them up close. Aerial pics are from the website.
I'm trying out this slide.com thing so we'll see if it works...

My kids would love to see that!

They are fascinated with hot air balloons.
