Hot air Balloon
 

Hello every one,<BR>I was wondering where can a person go ballooning in Europe, beside France. I was watching this program on travel channel about France. You could go ballooning. Any way, it inspired me. I like to find out if there are other places where you can learn and do this, especially in Italy and Switzerland. <BR>Can a person travel between countries in Europe in balloon? is that allowed? has any ever done it? <BR>I like to do that some time, first I have to buy my own balloon and learn to operate it!

http://www.ballooningintuscany.com for starters.<BR><BR>Long distance ballooning is a very different thing, I think.<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>

Here's a few for Switzerland as well.<BR><BR>http://www.swiss-ballon.ch/engl/start3E.htm<BR><BR>http://www.ballonfahrer.ch/e_01.htm<BR><BR>http://www.ballonfahren.ch (German and French only)<BR>

up, for Annie<BR>

Thank you Rex. It's great to know one can always count on you.

Awww... blushing... you're welcome.<BR>

I don't know whether this will add to the discussion, but if you want a simple balloon ride, I saw a lot of this in the skies over Stockholm two weeks ago. I don't know if it was some sort of balloon festival or whether hot air ballooning is a big deal there.

To others reading this, and interested in ballooning in France, a reminder: search "montgolfieres" here on this forum for several relevant threads.<BR>
