Clark, Pampanga: The Hot Air Balloon Festival

It's February! The season of Superbowl, the start of the Chinese New Year, the preparation for Valentine's day, and the beginning of summer. Last February 2013, it wasn't only love that floated in the air... we also had balloons. :) 

Unfortunately, the 19th Hot Air Balloon Festival, an annual event held every February at Clark Freeport Zone, Pampanga, was almost cancelled until the Department of Tourism decided to take over the event. This year's festival will be moved to April 10-13, 2014 instead but on the same venue.
