Our itinerary: Shenandoah Hot Air Balloon and Wine Festival
Destation: LONG BRANCH Historic House & Farm
Staging location: Centreville Commuter Parking Lot
Scene: Dawn, in a farm field with colorful hot air balloons prepping for the morning flight. Do I need to say more? This will be the 13th annual Hot Air Baloon and Wine Festival held in Millwood, VA.
--From the 2008 Washington Post editoral:
Held at a historic farm, the 12th annual festival has all-day music, food and crafts, as well as an antique car show. Kids can see magic shows, ride a monster truck, explore a hay bale maze or go on a hayride. Picnics are welcome.
See the balloons launch on Saturday and Sunday around 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., when winds are calmest. For a balloon ride (most rides are about $250 per person), call 877-868-1811.
Camera equipment: A wide angle and a long lens. Point and shoots are always welcomed.
Directions: The Farm Commuter Lot
Don't forget to pack a snack and a few bottles of water. Please email me if you have any questions. I will see you there!
