Raining Balloons

    On July 26th I was heading back to Frankfurt from Paris to catch a flight. I looked outside the window of the train and saw countless hot air balloons floating around. Turns out it was part of this Biennale Mondiale de l’Aérostation balloon launch. Apparently there were 329 balloons there.
