The Balloons did not fly this morning, too much wind, however Ed walked down, George, Butch and Steve rode their bikes. The balloons were blown up but not able to fly. Ed said it was awesome. He took some pictures. We probably won't be able to see anything tomorrow as the wind is really whipping it up now. We had plans to ride the tram today and have lunch at the Casino and those plans were changed due to the winds. The plan now is to go to Old Town and have lunch and wander the area. It is a shame that Mother Nature decided to have a tantrum this week. Just wanted to get this blog started this morning and will update tonight....
Our group enjoyed a nice lunch at a Mexican Restaurant in Old Town, browsed through the shops. There was a neat park in the center of the Plaza with music all afternoon. It is getting pretty windy in this area. The balloon event was cancelled for this evening. Robert and Carol, Gail and Jeff, Bev and Tom, Ed and I went to Cracker Barrel for dinner tonight. As I have said before, this restaurant is not in California so we really enjoy it when we find one on our travels. On our return to the RV area the fireworks were going off. They were set off early but we still got a chance to see quite a bit. Very extensive firework display... The plan for the mooring is getting up at 5:00 am, which in my opinion is the middle of the night; catch the bus that goes to the balloon field at 6:00 am. Ed will check the news at 5:00 am to see if the morning events will be able to go on, depending on the weather. Will let you know if I will get through the morning plans.... it is mighty cold out there in the morning. So until next time.....
