Our February balloon flight from the Pyrenees to the Costa Brava

Airborne Adventures PyreneesOur balloon G-HTEK returned by road from Spain yesterday to the Hope Technology factory after our brilliant first balloon Tour of Catalonia.
I had forgotten that inside the basket was my Garmin VIRB camera. I had used the camera to record our balloon flight from the Launch site at Alp airfield in the Pyrenees to the Costa Brava, where We finally landed after two and a half hours – very near to the Hotel Arcs de Monells where we stay during our trips in the summer.
While Libby and David travelled by road to collect us, Josep and Sandra entertained us at the hotel with a celebratory bottle of Cava which rounded the flight off beautifully!
Next year (2016) the second Balloon Tour of Catalonia will take place again in February and you too can join us if you wish. Here are some of the pictures from the Garmin VIRB  (on a time lapse setting) taken during the flight.
