I'm running out of balloons Mira! I used to do a lot of high wind wind surfing on a short board ~ for this I needed force 6 and above really ~ the number of times I'd be sitting on the beach waiting for the low to bring the wind ~ you do or did the opposite, sit on the ground and wait for the high to arrive. Although of course early morning and evening often bring gentle breezes or almost nothing at all.

Balloons can't fly if you have convection or too strong wind Nick. Yes, often we would sit and wait for wind to calm down, for our golden evening hour! I still have some more left, but you'll have to be patient and wait for me to find them and get them ready for the magic world of Panoramio. Can you do it?

If I can wait for the wind Mira ~ I can wait for your new balloon shots for as long as it takes ~ I'll leave you in peace now Mira ~ it as good to share some time together and enjoy your World of Balloons Ciao :)

Dear Mira,

The contrail makes this appear to be a very rapid descent!! But I am ready for a gentle ascent.

Hi Nick,

I have just learnt something of your thrilling past! I prefer the wait for the highs, while you like to create your own highs. I dips my lid to you.!

It is just all distant memories these days Ian ~ perhaps it is time I took up Mira's game ~ up up and away............ I really fancy kite surfing but I have one hand that is not quite all it should be these days after a Porta Cabin dropped on it just catching and crushing the little finger and that sort of area ~ I still have the finger but it is shorter and no longer bends ~ sooner or later it'll get ripped off, but I prefer the later option ~ I think :) I hope you are beginning to settle in by the way.

Kindest regards to you and to dearest Mira ~ ciao nick

It's only an illusion in this photo Ian, the shape of the envelope will tell you that the descent was very gentle, just as you would enjoy it! Thanks for accompanying me on the balloon trip around the world! It was also a real joy seeing our dear Nick at this stage of the trip! BTW Nick, I may fly in your general direction during the next sumer...

Best wishes to both of you, Mira
