The packaging of the Chinese balloons did request that these not be launched near airports. Very resourceful do-it-yourself balloons!

They worked great! Favorite story was of a friend who did this from top of his college (which shall not be named) dorm in a very small Southern town. Next day, the local paper ran a story saying that several citizens had called the police reporting UFO sightings. This, of course, prompted the launching of many more of them.

They're not cheap but they're compeletely worth it for a special occasion - like a friend's visit to Albuquerque or a family reunion in Durango.

As you may know, Albuquerque plays host to one of the largest hot air balloon festivals in the world, and one of my best friends is visiting from far away to take it in this October. I think this might be just the way to commemorate her visit! Cool, Jennifer — can you provide a link as to where you buy them?
