My Weekend At The Adirondack Balloon Festival!

I wanted to share my weekend in upstate NY at the Adirondack Balloon Festival in case you missed it!


Here we are at the airport.  We began our live hits from the rooftop!



Q Fans came over to say "Hi"!!



My stylist & friend came to make me look beautiful!  Thanks, Dina!



The balloons are transported to the field in a small trailer.  The crew lays it in prep for the basket.



They fill the balloon with cold air first & then blast the hot air to get it off the ground.



The basket is attached & our pilot is giving us instructions before the flight.



I'm in & ready for flight!! 



This was my view during the flight...gorgeous, serene, peaceful!



We landed safely!  Next stop...the Flloyd Bennett Memorial Airport!



After we were finished shooting for the day, Jim, Iz & I headed over to check out the kiddo shapes!  Iz loved it, but it was a little bit loud.  I think we're seeing Spider-pig's feet.  



The next morning we had free.  So, we took a trip to Lake George. 



Saturday was a bummer.  Oodles of wind so the balloons couldn't take off.  This is me in the hotel doing an interview with a local paper.  Fun!  Btw-notice the clogs...they're coming up during FFANY Shoes on Sale in Oct!!



A great event & time was had by all at the Adirondack Balloon Festival!  (Again...notice the boots...coming up on Oct during FFANY Shoes on Sale!). A big thanks to Carrie & the on-site Q crew & Mark Donahue from the ABF & all his peeps!!!
