Floating over Albuquerque. Float on

We’d like to trade our usual Tuesday morning experience in for this one, please. Welcome to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico. The festival continues until October 14, with plenty of on-the-ground entertainment beyond those balloon rides that might take you east of the city, all the way to the foothills of the Sandia Mountains, seen in this photo. Many hot air balloon rides offer a champagne toast as part of the experience. That tradition may have sprung from early balloon pilots having to land in farm fields on private property. Aeronauts began carrying champagne or other drinks with them to offer to the confused and sometimes angry landowners.
