Title: Pictures from a Hot Air Balloon
Post by: Old Cruser on September 05, 2014, 02:36:49 PM
 I have been sent some photographs taken from a balloon and have been given permission to share them.

Have to admit I wouldn't go up in one but hubby has and really enjoyed it.

Too small doesn't do the photograph justice.

Bottom left, Thanet Street junction. Thanet Runs up to the right. Tesco in the top distance.

They don't seem to do as many these days Simon, the insurance is very high.
Hubby said it was a fantastic experience when he did it a few years ago.

Great pics, would love to do it, i think the virgin balloon takes off from Bakewell showground most days if the weather is ok

Amazon local do some offers now and again, think its about £90 a person.
