Wordless Wednesday: A Birds-Eye View

My Mum and I took to the sky's over the Canberra on a gorgeous summer morning




Telstra Tower, with our shadow!

Parliament House

The National Museum

Questacon

The Carillon


We celebrated our landing (and survival ;)) with the most delicious and decadent champagne breakfast...Bliss!!

    You know, I was climbing Mt. Ainslie during the Canberra Day long weekend and got to see some of the balloons over the lake. I've ALWAYS wanted to do it. You've inspired me !

    Wow! That looks beautiful. Definitely on my lists of "to do's"... but I might be going solo as Mr. Mandie is not too happy with heights!

      It's pretty cool to see the world from up there... And a bit surreal too!

    Stunning pictures! I've always wanted to do it but I must confess I'd be absolutely terrified up there.

      Thanks Becky. It didn't feel scary like I thought it would...just felt like going up in a lift! when the blowers were on it was REALLY noisy and HOT! but when we were just floating it was beautiful, quiet and calm :)
