Fantastic Finale
20 March 2016: It was a fantastic finale to what has been another wonderful Balloon Spectacular. We have been treated to an array of visual delights once again by the pilots who put on a brilliant display. Only 365 days to go until our skies and waterways are dotted with balloons. I can’t wait !
Balloons with a View
19 March 2016: The lawns of Old Parliament House were dotted with balloons early on this morning due to unfavourable winds. Most people would consider this a bad thing, but on the contrary, this allowed me and many other family’s the opportunity to get up close and personal with the balloons, the pilots and the support crew. For me this was a first time experience as I am accustomed to seeing the balloons from a waters perspective. The close contact left me wanting more, even after 2 hours of cruising my way amongst the sounds and colours. I had the opportunity to liaison with the people who are truly passionate about ballooning and that make this event a wonderful occasion for us all.
It was a Hoot of a morning
Balloons Burners & Brilliance
17 March 2016: The sky was a buzz with the sound of blasting burners breaking the morning silence in Canberra. Balloons were lighting up the early morning sky, baskets were dripping water after their ‘Splash & Dash’ or I should be saying ‘Sail & Drift’. We had single and double chair balloons dropping down from great height at a rapid rate of knots only to pull up with pin point precision and calmly ‘Sail & Drift’ on the waters surface. The balloons always create such a happy and enjoyable environment for everyone to experience. It was a brilliant spectacle and a true indication of how skilful the pilots are that fly these balloons. Do yourself a huge favour and make sure you experience this as you will be talking about it for ages.
A Canberra Story
16 March 2016: The Canberra Centre’s ‘A Canberra Story’ is a visual spectacular that is the first of its kind in Australia. It’s an interactive art installation that takes you on a journey through some of Canberra’s famous landmarks such as Telstra Tower, the Arboretum and Lake Burley Griffin. It is located on level one of the Canberra Centre opposite the Apple Store.
