Fabien, the pilot, gave us a warm welcome and explained the preparation, installation and operation of the balloon. It's a great experience to share with at least one member of your family! We were lucky enough to get a good turn around the Château de Chenonceau: it was beautiful! We enjoyed taking part, helping Fabien and his team with some of the steps, including folding up and putting away the balloon. To celebrate, we shared a glass of friendship!
