Reno hosts a hot air balloon festival every year so we made it to the "big event". So, I read on the website that the "can't miss" event would start at 5:45a.m. YES, I said AM... where the balloons would lift off and 100 of them would be in the sky. SO, Duke and I rolled out of bed to not miss this big event and this is what we saw at 6:15am:
They only had 4 balloons lift off at 6:15am... had we known it would have only been 4 balloons, and had we known, they would only light up the balloons a total of 3 times, we would have stayed in bed and waited until 8:00a.m. when we saw this:
It was fun to see all the balloons, there were supposed to be 100 balloons, but we only counted like 75... at least we can say we did it and we don't have to do it again :)
After the hot air balloons, we decided to go to Lake Tahoe. The weather ended up being windy and a little rainy, unexpected as I was hoping to soak in some rays! So, you'll have to ignore my non "made-up" self in these pictures, but we had a great time playing on the beach at Tahoe and the weather cleared up enough for us to golf afterwards!
And, the finally for the day was a sunset over Tahoe... it was a great day!
