It's MotoGP time again in Assen! In the week prior to this event, known as the Dutch TT that will be held this coming Sunday, all kinds of activities are organised. One of them is the TT Balloon Festival that we visited last Sunday evening. About 25 hot-air balloons went up in the blue sky in still tropical temperatures. The special shapes were spectacular! How about this Nissan Micra..
.. and this happy lady..
And of course the lucky ones on board did a lot of waving to the people left behind on the ground.
A few more photos tomorrow.
I'm linking to All Seasons.

That is a very special event! Love the colorful balloons and all the different shapes. I don't care to ride in on, though. I prefer staying on the ground and taking photos. :)
