We really wanted to go to the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta this year.

While the balloon events and fireworks were amazing, the traffic was maddening. There was no traffic control and the roads could not support the number of cars present. In addition, few bad people really messed up the traffic by cutting in and causing havoc. It took more than one hour to just get off the Freeway. This was the worst-organized event I have ever attended in my entire life. It is incredible that an event that has been organized for so many years can be this mis-managed. Grace and I decided we would not go back to the Balloon Fiesta for at least 10 years, if not more.
