This hot air balloon landed on the golf course in front of our condo. You can see the Ferris Wheel across the channel at the Balloon festival site. The mountains are in California across the three mile wide Lake Havasu/Colorado river. As an aside, when McCullough brought the London Bridge over to LHC, he had it constructed on dry land. This channel that you are seeing was dredged after the bridge was in place. It created the island portion of Lake Havasu City. The channel comes in from the lake, goes under the bridge and continues back out to the lake to the south.
