How can I plan for the best experience?
Wear good walking shoes. We have 15 acres, so hiking is a possibility.
Bring sunscreen. There is very little shade.
Get here early. When the balloons inflate, long lines form.
Wear comfortable, cool clothing.
If you take tether rides, the flame does make it hot in the basket.
