Hardy souls those balloonists and also can't forget the photographer.
Looks very cold and misty I'll cosy up to the fire and enjoy you efforts.

This was a Queen's Birthday Weekend event - launching each morning of the 3 days.
I thought I read that this was billed as the first annual balloon festival, but can't find any such reference to that now - we shall have to wait and see.
Goldrush Ballooning fly regularly from Brown Brothers at Milawa, but this event included extra balloons from all over.
