We got up crazy early on day 2 to go see the first balloon launch at 6am. After standing on the hill for a few hours, they did at least briefly inflate one balloon for us. However, it wasn't nearly safe enough to launch. So, we spent the day visiting a few more covered bridges and Quechee Gorge. While looking for a place for lunch, we discovered that King Arthur Baking was nearby so we went and enjoyed some delicious sandwiches on fresh baked bread and some of the best sticky buns I've had anyplace. We also spent time browsing their incredible store. We even brought home some low-carb flour blends. Then it was back to the festival grounds for another balloon launch attempt in the evening. Mother Nature had other ideas and no balloons were unpacked from their trucks again.
