Here is photographed the process of preparing and flying the hot air balloon over Trakai, Lithuania. It was an experience beyond anything I ever had. It was smooth, unlike I expected and an amazing guide. I highly recommend http://www.orobalionas.com.

The balloon before being unpacked!

Arriving well before sunset, the balloons were unpacked and expanded using fans

Hot fire flames continued to expand and lift the balloon to a vertical position

And before our eyes an amazing view of the land began to unfold

Trakai castle in it’s full beauty!

Our neighbouring balloons kept us company

As the sun continued to shine

Crossing highways

And dirt roads

Our pilot looked for the best ‘back yard’ to land on

Finding a beautiful flower field

It was an unforgettable, heart melting experience. I had never seen my homeland from such perspective. I hope you enjoyed seeing it too!
