Great day at Norton Park, Plainville, CT
It was a glorious day for balloons lovers. Undoubtedly,
I am talking about hot air balloons. The
weekend was very crowded. Thousands of people from many places were attracted
to this spectacular event at Norton Park, in Plainville, CT. This activity was organized by the Plainville
Fire Company. The Festival opened on Friday, August 23rd and ended on Sunday,
August 25th, 2013. Admission to the Festival
grounds was Free . There was plenty of
parking space on public streets bordering the event. There was great entertainment
and enjoyment for all spectators.
Balloons were
launched at 6:00 am and at 6:00 pm on
Saturday, August 24th and at 6:00am on Sunday, August 25th, 2013. There was a car show
and a motorcycle show on site; live
bands played music at the park; food, beverage and craft vendors were present.
There were lots of volunteers helping people. The pilots were excited. The crew
was very busy. The audience was holding their breath. Winds were perfect for an
easy launch. The crowd was ready to cheer.
Balloons quietly lift off of the ground. Balloons started climbing away. Everybody was thrilled.
Everyone was enjoying the
dramatic view. It was a great day for
ballooning! Floating around in a hot air balloon must be an exhilarating
experience.
We should support
all balloonists in this region. You can always look for a balloon club near you. I believe
festivals like this, at Norton Park, in Plainville, CT, would boost
Connecticut's tourism industry. This event was a total success. If you like to watch hot air balloons flying away, don't miss the next
balloon festival at Norton Park, in Plainville, CT. This was the first hot air balloon festival I have ever attended. I
got stunned by the experience. My next destination is Albuquerque, NM.
