Special Shapes Day

Hi All,

This morning's program was dedicated to the unusually shaped balloons. We had seen many already and wondered if we would see any new ones. You bet; there were lots of new ones. Our only disappointment was that many just inflated on the ground but never took off. Still, it was a great sight. We even bought a program to learn all the names.

Red Bird- Unlike Darth Vader, the owner of this balloon does not have permission to use the copyrighted name so Woody Woodpecker is just "Red Bird"

Sea Fantasy- this was one of the most complex balloons. The main section is an octopus. There's a fish on the right side, a seahorse on the left and two dolphins on the back.

Squawk

Reach for the Stars. Sponsored by the Make A Wish Foundation, this balloon depicts a boy in a wheelchair, reaching for a star. This was one of our favorites; it would have been great to see it fly.

Love,
