Day 5 - Flight 3

Last day - last flight - two tasks: [TDS: In fact it is flight 3b - two tasks had been cancelled in a field briefing.]

A wonderfull morning at the Landal village of Orveltermarke. It is the fifth day of the 3rd FAI Women’s European Hot Air Balloon Championship 2015 in Drenthe, Netherlands. Due to the bad weather it is the thrird flight. Two of four tasks will be cancelled. 

It is a short flight, but is the chance to get fantastic photos for the early birds at the Landal GreenPark.
