I think there were more fun shooting 15 old bikes than shooting 1 hot air balloon.

There were more; and added to that all of them were nostalgic to a few. Credits to GETUAS (Persatuan Gerek Tua Alor Setar), for those who didn't know 'gerek' is a slang word for bicycle in Kedah but don't ask me how did it came about.
But to be fair, shooting the hot air balloon (that didn't take off due to wind factor) was quite an experience.

It was late in the afternoon and I was shooting in a low light setting. And watching the team trying their best to put it up despite the wind was against them was a highlight.
It was better than none, because about a few months back Kedah had her own hot air balloon festival but I had missed out on it because I was outstation that weekend. So yeah, One is better than none (the balloon looks like Squidward, me thinks hehehe).
