At last!

Thursday 25th June 2020

My friend was only saying the other day that we hadn't heard from the little people for a while and then, today, I receive this "postcard" from them! It read:-

"Robert spent quite a bit of time with the repair on our balloon. It needed a new thermo coupling and a new canopy, we chose a maroon this time. We've moved destination (via plane) and the weather is much better here, although once the balloon was launched we discovered there was still quite a breeze. You can see, from the angle, that we got knocked about a bit. We all had a turn but it could only take three at a time. These are the photos when Richard, Lily and her Dad went up. By that time the outer canopy (shower cap) was beginning to come away. Jemima needs to do some more repairs with the needle and thread. Lily kept shouting "We're on an adventure like Gulliver's Son!" Thankfully they made it safely back down and even landed right in the centre of the bullseye we had put on the ground as a target. We're going to take it easy now and have a more relaxing time."
