For the second year the Balloon Festival held in Indio was a bust. Many of the larger balloons didn’t fly because of the wind and then nobody even unpacked their balloon the next day because of the threat of rain and a few drops falling. There is not an easy way to dry out your balloon before you put it away if it gets wet and nobody likes a wet balloon.
I did get to walk the 300 yards from our resort to the place they launch and got to see many of the balloons even if they didn’t fly. It is always a letdown to see them inflate the balloon and then take it down without leaving the ground. Many of the balloons that did fly did not go far and stayed very close to the ground.
