woke up and watched half an hour of FMG balloons taking off from the Gatineau Airport…

brought back such wonderful memories… our first flight took five tries in 2013 but when we finally made it, it was spectacular…

that flight was from the grounds of the Festival…

in 2014, we made it the very first time and ended up taking off from the same airport as I watched the liftoff online…

the Festival happens on the September long weekend and I am hoping to make it there again… someday;-)…
