Re: Our hot air balloon flight over Maastricht
Good to see it Lloyd and it looks like a good time was had by all.
It brought back memories of our my 2 flights in Egypt over the west bank of Luxor.
The 2nd trip found us having to drop down in the back yard at one of the village houses quite quickly due to us being carried in the direction of the east bank and electricity pylons.
The old lady who owned the land we came down on ran out smiling gleefully to collect her "landing fees".
A tremendous experience indeed, everyone should give it a go at sometime or another. My hubby isn't too keen on heights but he came along with me on the first trip and had a great time. I went on the 2nd occasion with some other friends on their first holiday to Egypt, hubby got up with me for the 04:30 early morning pick up and was waiting for us when we got back for breakfast just after 08:00.
He was a bit miffed though about missing out on the little "muskila" we encountered coming in to land.
