Friends say that I am so lucky to have a Photographer’s Pass every year at the Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta (PIHABF) since 2010.
Well, just when I thought I ran out of luck in this year’s PIHABF, it turned out to be more awesome, as I was able to bring my family and friends (fellow Mozillians, actually) right inside the flight line at the airfield of Omni Aviation Corporation.
The only difference this year was that I do not have a Photographer’s ID Pass, instead we were given Photographer’s Stick-on Passes with reflectorized vests. Nonetheless, it was an awesome experience. Excited much for PIHABF 2014.
But what made the 18th PIHABF a lot different from the previous years was the participation of the Breitling Jet Team (BJT).
