Close Quarters
In response to a comment I received on yesterday's balloon image......Yes! Lift off is chaotic mayhem! But it is a well orchestrated mayhem! Each crew knows every move, from laying out the envelope on the ground, to lighting the burners and guiding the balloon to an upright position. There is a flurry of last minute preparation and then the balloon lifts off , peacefully floating above the activity below. It is such a thrill to be in the midst of the mayhem, as nearly 600 balloons take their turn to inflate and rise to meet their friends in the sky!
