Bristol city centre

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Whilst in Bristol the other day I was wandering along the harbour area (now beautifuly renovated and rejuvenated for tourists) and watched the BMX cyclists practicing their moves, and some of them were pretty flashy as seen below. Here is a photograph of one of the guys doing his thing.

Bristol Balloon Festival

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

At the weekend we went to Bristol Internalional Balloon Festival, the weather was fantastic as were the balloons. On the Saturday morning over 96 balloons took off, and as there was very little wind they tended to hang around the launch site so there were always lots to see in the air. Below is a shot of the launch site early Saturday morning.
