My husband plus I had talked about going to see Albuquerque for quite a few years, neither a single of us had ever been to New Mexico, then all of us considered odd times of year to take our getaway plus finally chose September because of the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta… Lasting multiple afternoons, this easily unique festival includes balloon rodeos, twilight balloon glows plus over 5 hundred warm air balloons! It’s the most popular event in the neighborhood plus brings in approximately 850,000 people.
While every one of us knew this would mean lots of crowds plus more expensive hotel rates, every one of us felt it was worth it. All of us were not disappointed! From the moment every one of us stepped out of our hotel room, every one of us saw balloons everywhere, then they filled the skies plus landed in every available parking lot plus field. The balloons are so colorful plus appealing. There are all odd sizes plus shapes. While every one of us were in town, every one of us visited all of the advised local attractions, such as San Felipe de Neri Church, the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center plus the various museums plus shops dedicated to Native American culture plus handicrafts. All of us also took the option to stop by numerous of the local recreational cannabis dispensaries, coming from a state where adult-use cannabis is not yet legal, this was quite a novelty for us. All of us were amazed by the number of consumption methods plus products available… My husband discovered that the cannabis-infused topicals effectively relieved his joint pain. I finally got a superb night’s sleep because of an indica vape. All of us both actually enjoyed the variety of gummies plus chocolates.
