Hot-air ballooning in France, August 1999

In August 1999, I took part in the Lorraine '99 Balloon Fiesta held at Chambley Airbase, near Metz in North-East France. This event is held every two years, and this was my fourth visit.

During one evening flight, we had some spectacular views of other balloons against the setting sun.

My thanks to pilots Peter Kenington, and Jane and Piers from Birmingham Balloons.
