Balloon Stampede






















A few weeks ago we went to Antelope Island for a Balloon Stampede and Kite Flying Festival. We rode on a mini train and watched balloons and really enjoyed ourselves. I went to Antelope Island (where the Great Salt Lake is) last year and was so severely disappointed that I vowed I'd never go back....at least not until my kids are out of the stroller. There are no trails there for strollers - just lots of drives and walks and no trees and smelly salts. But...it was much improved with a balloon festival, I must say. I relented, and I was glad. On the drive home I caught a magnificent full moon rise reflecting off the Great Salt Lake...I might go back again!
