MAGICAL!!!! The BIGGEST hot air balloon event in the world (Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta)

Описание: Ep. 193 - We woke up early in the morning to check off an item that has been on Audra's bucket list for a very long time. However, little did we know, things were about to go horribly wrong and we were in for a couple very stressful hours. Would Audra get to experience this event she'd been waiting for?

The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta runs each October from the 1st weekend until the 2nd weekend of the month with a mass ascension of over 500 balloons on the weekend days at 7am. It is the biggest balloon event in the world. The cost of the event is just $15/person for each session.

Join us as we share a close-up look at how hot air balloons are launched and the spectacular experience of witnessing hundreds of hot air balloons ascending into the skies!

FILM DATES: October 8-14, 2023
