Re: Balloon

I wonder if that one has strayed from the Bristol Balloon Festival this weekend . It was held 4 miles away from us and we haven't seen one balloon this year. Obviously the wind has been in the wrong direction

Good shot Caricature

Lovely photo! Haven't seen any here either, we usually do! I saw lots of shooting stars though, gave myself neck ache!

Re: Balloon

Excellent photo. I love to see balloons. I have been in one, I thought I'd be terrified, but it was amazing floating over the Masai Mara. That was a once in a lifetime for me, I almost backed out at the last minute, but glad I didn't.

I have also been in a hot air balloon Loretta .... we floated over the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, it was an amazing experience

It's certainly different isn't it Mags? I really panicked at the last minute, I am hopeless with heights, I still don't know how I managed to do it. I'm so glad I did though, it was an amazing experience.
