The festival was really more of a music festival with balloons - it was held about 30 miles from Montreal in a town called Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu with an airport, military college and 5 other launching spots. Launch time was planed for 6 but was closer than to 6:30.
About 15 launched from our site and joined others already in the air - a lot of fun to see them inflate - I love the intense colors of some of them against the sky.
