I heard the sound of a hot air balloon while we were having dinner in the garden. When we spotted it we couldn't believe how low it was.... it was almost touching the tree tops and very clearly it couldn't get up again and was coming down quite rapidly. For a moment we feared that it was going to crash into the houses behind ours. It was a spectacular sight, but we were keeping our fingers crossed that all was going to end well. Like the rest of our street/town we followed the balloon and willed it to make it safely across the busy highway. Thankfully after hitting a few trees, it landed safely.
Isn't it amazing? Same thing happened behind our house a couple of years ago on a middle school field. Quite a production to put away ;)
