Seen outside my office window Thursday morning
I've been watching the "parade" every morning this week. It is all part of the 2006 Baton Rouge Hot Air Balloon Festival Championship (at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center which is within a a short bike ride of our house).
Later, one of these balloons went, um, slightly off course and had to land on top of a parking garage across the street. Never a dull moment!
More Baton Rouge balloon pix, from a different photographer.
