I really enjoyed reading about this and I love that the article included a video of the event. I have friends that attended the balloon festival and I've always thought it would be wonderful to see it in person. I love the addition of something this high-tech as a compliment to the low technology balloons. I also had no idea there was such a drone show specialty already. It seems like relatively new technology to me so to see this company so established was a surprise. I like that the article mentioned the expense associated with drones. I also found it interesting that the drones came in handy when there were weather delays that wouldn't allow balloons to go up. I was surprised this kind of weather didn't affect the drones more but it seems like everything went off without a hitch and everyone was happy to have this new element.
