Los globos son como los hombres. Muchos de ellos flotan, pero solo uno me captura el corazón.

Balloons are like men. Many float around, but only one captures my heart.

Algunos vuelan en globos aerostáticos, otros pueden lograrlo usando solo su mente.

Some people fly in hot air balloons, others can achieve that using only their mind.

Y ella dijo, "Que hayan los globos," y hubieron los globos.

And she said, "Let there be balloons," and there were balloons.

(Or should it be "haya" and "hubo" or some other form of the verb?)

Clever!! - rac1, Jun 29, 2017
Hi ann, only just saw this one: haya y hubo...this word never has a plural form, even though lost of native speakers make this mistake. - 006595c6, Jun 30, 2017

With hot-air balloons as a backdrop, the lady is doing her daily stretch routine. Con globos de aire caliente como telón de fondo, la mujer está haciendo su rutina diaria de estiramientos.

Or she is a "flower child" from back in the day. lol - rac1, Jun 29, 2017
Gracias por la corrección. - NKM1974, Jun 29, 2017
Good one Nkm. Probably "stretch routine" or "routine of stretching" would be better. - jellonz, Jun 29, 2017
I went with "stretch routine" because it's short. Thank you @jellonz. - NKM1974, Jun 29, 2017

Aplastar globos es difícil cuando el resplandor del sol está en sus ojos.

Swatting balloons is difficult when the brightness of the sun is in your eyes.
