Canberra Balloon Fiesta
April 22nd, 2006 at 02:36pm
After a week of unusual weather conditions preventing the hot air balloons from flying above Canberra, they were able to go up this morning, and should be able to do so again tomorrow.
Nattie and I won’t be letting the forecasted overnight low temperature of -1 degrees celcius get in our way…we’ll be making our way down there in the morning with the camera. I’m led to believe that 2CC’s Classic Aussie Mike “Frame in the Plane” Frame (more on that shortly) will be flying away in one of the balloons. Nattie and I will try and catch up with him.

Hey Sam, have you considered using your connections with Classic Aussie Mike “Frame in the Plane” Frame to maybe hitch a lift in one of the balloons? I’m sure if you asked nicely someone would give you a ride… maybe there’s room in Classic Aussie Mike “Frame in the Plane” Frame’s balloon?
I wonder if Nattie would like flying?

Nattie isn’t keen on the noise of the burners in the hot air balloons…she likes the heat though. Somehow I think she would rather walk to the event, have some bacon or sausage from the food tent, watch the balloons take off and fly away over the lake for a little while and then walk home.
