Hi.
This photo is from my iPhone of trim castle while we were there to see some balloons. I was looking at a Photo Ireland blog and happened upon a thread about some ballooning that was happening in Meath. The festival had already started so I decided to go on the Saturday to see the " nightglow" advertised for ten pm.
We arrived at 6pm and found out everything finished at 7pm and the night glow had been cancelled because of a bad weather forecast. All this way for nothing! Apparently, if we came back at 8am the next morning, the wind would be mild enough for the balloons. So we slept in dub that night and trudged at 6.15 am-(I kid you not) in the frosty morning air back to county Meath (and we were one of the first there)
We got the photos and by the time we left at 1pm, lots of people were there. I never knew the wind had to be so mild to allow balloons up ( up to a max of 7 miles per hour? if i recall).
We were happy we came to the Fiesta and tired. Check out more photos of the day on flickr.
