Reflections in the Cher River.

  • Reflections in the Cher River.
  • Looking down and up at the same time.
  • Balloon, trees, sunflowers, Cher.
  • Really enjoying the ride!
  • Balloon rides a quite quiet, except for when the burners are going - then it is quite noisy. However, the noise is preferred to hitting the trees.
  • We think they might have taken a break to go fishing in the Cher.
  • I hope you can spot at least 2 balloons.
  • Look! A round-a-bout!
  • Looking back at the town, river, château and balloon.
  • Guess they are done fishing.
  • Looking for a place to land.
  • On final approach and cleared for landing.
  • We've landed, now to put things away.
  • Wait for things to mostly deflate.
  • Disconnect the balloon from the cage.
  • Stretch out the balloon.
  • Then roll it up.
  • Finally, put the balloon back into the trailer.
  • Put the cage away, and we're done!
  • Getting ready for the toast.
