If there is one thing I’d like to visit this month, it will be the 17th Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta in Pampanga. I want to see all those majestic hot air balloons + ride in one, too. But, sadly, I guess I have to sit this one out + wait for the next hot air balloon festival 🙁
If you have a better luck that I do, be in awe + watch hundreds upon hundreds of spectacular hot air balloons air-bound at the 17th Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta, beginning 09 February until 12 February at the Omni Aviation Complex ~ Clark Airfield in Angeles City, Pampanga. If you are too inclined, you can even have a go at one of the hot air balloons on parade, too!
Hot air balloon festivals are more fun in the Philippines! 🙂
