Benalla hosted the 15th Australian Hot Air Balloon Championships
from July 7 - 15 2007
"Five, four, three, two, one . . . . .
"Lift off, we have lift off - better release the rope!"
"Yes! - We're off"
"Up, up"
"And awwaaaaaaaaaaaay"

Over Lake Benalla
A very colourful hot air balloon
The up-side - magnificent spectacle.
The down-side - rumour has it that Benalla's chiropractors, massage therapists and physiotherapists were kept busy
attending to strained necks
caused by looking upwards
for extended periods of time.
