For the first time in the history of the event? I went to the Saga Balloon Fiesta, which was cancelled🎈

I went to the 2024 Saga International Balloon Fiesta 💡 In 2024, the event was canceled from November 1st, the second day of the event, due to the risk of flooding the riverbed at the venue due to the effects of a typhoon. The event itself was canceled, but the competition section continued. There was no simultaneous takeoff or night mooring. It was held in a different way than usual. It was canceled on November 2nd due to rain. The weather cleared up on November 3rd, but the wind was strong, so the balloons did not fly 😭 But it was a last chance to cry!! Maybe they will fly on the morning of November 4th? Hoping for that, I left my hotel early in the morning and headed to the venue 🚗³₃ On the way, I found out that the balloons would be going up, so I parked my car at Saga Station and headed there by rental bicycle 🚲 (This time, the tournament was canceled, so the tournament parking lot and station were closed. Since the trains do not stop at Balloon Saga Station, the only way to go was to walk, cycle, or drive to a nearby area.) I chased the balloons while cycling, and when I arrived at the venue, there were many balloons flying in the sky ✨ I enjoyed the balloons from 7 to 9 in the morning, and then slowly cycled back to the station 🚴♂️ Event: Saga International Balloon Fiesta Period: October 31st to November 4th, 2024 Nearest station: Balloon Saga 🎈Schedule🎈 5:30 Wake up 6:00 Leave hotel 🚗 6:40 Parking & rental bicycle usage procedure 7:20 Arrive near Balloon Saga Station 7:30-9:40 Viewing the balloons 10:40 Return the rental bike @ Saga Station 11:00 Return the rental car #0 yen travel November #Saga balloon festival #Saga #Saga tourism #Saga trip #Life with travel
