I can tell you where all the toy balloons go...well, maybe not all,
but some of them.  The remains fall out of the sky and land on our
farm.  I've never actually seen one fall, but i've found lots of
remains.  Some have had address tags...those were from ~100 miles
away.  When I was little, it was a big thing to find one and
reply back to the sender...
