Title: Up and down
Post by: Spyder2015 on December 17, 2017, 12:02:39 AM

In October, I took a hot-air balloon ride. Made a five minute video summary of this amazing trip - and used my custom Essence 5-string for playing the bass track of the underlying music! Use headphones or external speakers to hear it growl! Link: https://youtu.be/aEgiG3CwYi8 (https://youtu.be/aEgiG3CwYi8)

Is this near Kassel?

Yes...the wind took us from Kassel over the country side to a small town called „Hannoversch Münden“ where two rivers - the Fulda and the Werra - get together. The result is called the Weser. Touch down was on a meadow somewhere in the middle of nowhere :-)

Found this picture, similar to the view in your video.

Nice video, nice music, nice foliage colors!   I did a balloon ride over Vermont once, it’s a cool experience for sure!  Thanks for sharing!
