Ed Brabson Balloon Park — Attraction in Alamogordo

Had the luck to be in town for the White Sands Balloon Invitational. The weather was amazing and perfect for the balloons to go up.

This was amazing! The locals clearly know to bring a chair and snacks. It's so cool to watch the balloons be inflated and go up. There were also free quick rides for those who signed up on the list. It wasn't a full ride in the balloon...a quick up in the air and back again. All the same, this would be great for anyone.

Plenty of people brought their cameras to capture the sight. If you have the chance to attend, I say do it!

Parking is pretty much get in where you fit in. We arrived early and left...

Nice experience for newbies but sucked for the experienced. To windy mostly. Typical weather conditions for the time of the year. Hopefully it will take place in October next year mid- month maybe? Hint hint.. sorry no photos of any balloons not much to see, my opinion surly. Always looking forward to...

Went for the balloon festival. Since this one was near Alamogordo/Holloman AFB didn’t have to do a lot of driving. Even though it’s on a smaller scale compared to the other festivals it still had a lot of participants. Would recommend if you prefer not driving...
