    It was the annual hot air ballon fiesta this weekend, so it rained, first time since June 5th

    This balloon is flying over Brunels Bristol suspension bridge

    I like the optical illusion. If you did not know the location before hand, that first photo looks like someone had simply stuck a giant motorbike on top of Brunel's famous bridge. From the shadows in those photos it appears the rain had passed and the sun was out indeed a nice day to take the VFR for a spin.

    Do you guys remember Malcolm Forbes? At least i think that was his name. I remember him having some kind of Harley themed balloon at Sturgis back in 1990. I think it was one of the last years he came.
