We are safely back home from the 6. Horber Neckar-Balloncup while our Brithsh friends still have some miles to go! It was a great event again with wonderful weather, only the last flight on Saturday evening had to be cancelled due to thunderstorms in the area – but that finally gave us some time to chat and party with the other teams.
So, a huge THANK YOU to all the organisers from the Ballonsportgruppe Horb am Neckar e.V., the competition officials and of course to all the teams near and far who participated! We would never have guessed that we would end up in 12th place of 29 participants in a field that strong, so we are more than happy with how this turned out :-)
Here are some photos from flight 6 on Saturday morning, not quite as sunny as the previous ones but beautiful nevertheless ;-)
A LIFE OF BALLOONING
The passion of a lifetime: To behold the stunning beauty of our world like no one else, free like a bird, high in the sky, yet one with nature, using the oldest principle of flight known to man: Lighter than air.
No wings, no noise, no pressure… just serenity, just perfect bliss. At one with the elements… at one with yourself.
