The girl with the red balloon

31 Photos in 31 Days

 

These beauties floated right over our house this morning, while I was getting ready for work.  Tim spotted them when he went out to put my coffee in the car (I really do love that boy) and I raced out on the driveway to catch these shots.

I can’t help it – whenever I see them I am completely mesmerised.

It’s been 18 months since we flew over the Yarra Valley for my 30th birthday, and I’m getting the itch to do it again very soon!

 

And speaking of balloons, I named this post after the song by The Civil Wars.  It comes from a spectacular album called Barton Hollow and I might be a little bit in love with them right now.

    @Fiona – I hadn’t realised that Canberra was a big ballooning city, but I can see why! I bet it would look awesome from up above.

    I’ll put it on my list ;)
