Picture this: skies are clear, evenings are crisp, and rain is rare. Leaves are turning fresh hues of orange and yellow as you float above the world in your very own gondola. As summer drifts away, September follows with scenic hot air balloon festivals all around the country, and no two are alike. ⁠ ⁠ Some double as county fairs with rides, copious foods on sticks, and the ever-present car show, while others break world records and memorialize local history–the adventure of choice is yours. At our link in bio, we compiled the best balloon fests in the US that you need to check out this fall. All you need to do is bring a blanket and maybe even a special someone… ⁠ ⁠ 📸: kisaiponce ⁠ ⁠ #hotairballoon #hotair #hotairballoonfestival #festival #guide #travel #travelpics #placestogo #vacationspots
