The Macy's balloon was this year's "hare" balloon that led off the race. The other balloons chased it until the pilot dropped a small beanbag in an open area. The balloon that landed closest to it was declared the winner.

sounds like a great day in the fresh air. more pictures please! kdad loves hot air balloons and would love to "up up and away" it someday.
well, the sky was awful for taking pictures so most of my pictures didn't turn out great. plus, I changed a white balance setting on my camera that really messed things up...I may yet post more later this week.
he was there but never got off the ground, reportedly due to concerns about possible thunderstorms. He was grounded along with the Wehrenberg Bag O' Popcorn balloon...big disappointments!

Didn't they used to have an Energizer BUnny Balloon that lead the whole thing? Did he pop?
