Day 4 at Fiesta.

After two days washed out by the weather it was good to be back on the field and flying again.
Today was a competition day and the targets were to be on the field so everyone was supposed to leave and fly back across the target area and drop their baggies, sand filled nylon bags with streamers.

As many people did not want to compete it was decided to allow those to fly from the field. This is what Keith decided, Dennis fitted the burners the right way up!

Black bits to the top Dennis!

Other people to fly from the field today were from overseas with their special shapes.

The Swiss brought a cathedral

The Brazilians brought a chicken

While the Germans brought their pisspot!

We also found Nemo!

To launch a balloon you need the OK from a launch director, commonly known a Zebras due to their black and white striped shirts. Over the years the dress has become more outlandish and bits have been added to the costume.

Our Zebra says GO

Chasing is just as much fun as flying and in the truck the crew have a good craic. Today we saw a sign that shows that the good lord has the same problems as me sometimes, as stated by the following sign spotted outside a church.

I've had to say the same to some women in the past !!!!!!
