Bristol Balloon Fiesta

Did anyone else go?

We had a lovely time watching all the balloons take off in the evening, and the carrot for my other half was being able to watch the red arrows display.

 

A couple of photos...

WOW! thanks for sharing the pictures.

 

Of all the things I have done in my life, a hot air balloon ride is 'right up there with the best of them!' It was many years ago but I can still recall every minute of it - fantasssssssstic

My daughter and were there for the Sunday evening flight too. Being 1 of only 2 flights they had managed all weekend it was packed. THe worst bit was leaving. It too 2 hours to move 3 car lengths then another half an hour just to get off the site. There was some incredibly selfish behaviour from drivers. The poor marshalls were doing their best (they had been on duty since 5am) but it was the biggest crowd anyone could remember for years. THe balloons were as always fantastic though.
