Bristol International Balloon Fiesta 2

I didn't bother to get up to see the 6am balloon take-off and my laziness was rewarded by the wind bringing them right past my bedroom window (last extra).

This evening we took a picnic up Troopers Hill, more than five miles from their take-off point, just in case the wind blew them our way again - and it did!

It's good to be having a relaxing time here undistracted by tasks that need doing at home. As a result I've caught up with ten days' backblips now, starting here, in case you're interested and haven't seen them.
