Flight of the Nations Day!

 
In spite of the rain causing flight cancellations, we had a great International day at Balloon Fiesta Park.  Over 20 Students from Annonay France visited us on air, wearing Period Costumes.  Annonay is the home of Montgolfier, the man who invented and flew the very first hot air balloon back in the 1700's.  They (the French) LOVE our Balloon Fiesta, and I have been mentioned in several newspaper articles over there. The students and their teachers had a lot of fun taking pictures with us.  Special thanks to Rio Rancho High School French teacher Nancy Oakes for setting this all up!
