Balloons in the sky over Nizhny Novgorod

Last winter, I ended up in the city of Nizhny Novgorod. It is a big beautiful city with a rich history and a lot of interesting architectural objects.
One of the important objects of the city is the building of the Nizhny Novgorod Fair. Previously, all kinds of trade took place in this house, especially at the time of the big Nizhny Novgorod fair.
Now there is a historical museum and, in addition, other exhibitions dedicated to the history of Nizhny Novgorod.
We went to this museum, and when we got out, we discovered that several balloons were being prepared for launch in the square in front of the house.
This is an amazing sight that I have never seen so close before.
I immediately pulled out my camera from the case and burning my hands in the cold, I began to take pictures. There were four balloons in total. Very quickly, two of them filled with hot air and flew away. The other two began to cook after them.
I even managed to talk with one of the balloonists. He said that he did not know exactly where the wind would take them. That flight will be a few hours. During the flight, they contact the car crew of the lorry, which must arrive and pick up the ball and basket at the landing site.
This is sometimes a very long journey, since it is not possible to control the ball. He flies where the wind blows. And I also learned that there is no wind on the ball. Since the ball flies with the wind, it turns out that relative to the air, it stands still. It is interesting.
I would like to fly in a balloon. If I were alone, they could take me. The only thing is that you need to dress very warmly, as it can be very cold in a ball basket.

I was fascinated by these bright balloons in the blue frosty sky of Nizhny Novgorod.
