Comments: The balloon ride was a birthday present from Paul & family in 2006. As I had labelled the photographs it has been possible to follow the course of the ride when adding the walk to the website in 2024.

Joseph checks out the balloon . . .

and helps Paul with some equipment . . .

but keeps a distance . . .

as the balloon is inflated

We will soon be up there . .

and on our way . . .

over Wray . . .

and Hornby

The River Lune snakes its way across the fields . . .

and we spot the red balloon over Barbon Manor

Then it's over Whelprigg . .

and Barbon Church . . .

before making our descent . . .

to terra firma

A final group photo . . .

but I think Joseph has other ideas
