## Caption

The sky over the UK city of Bristol is once again filled with hot air balloons for the annual Bristol International Balloon Fiesta.⁣
⁣
The festival was started in 1979 by Don Cameron and his friends in a local pub. Cameron's company, Cameron Balloons, still makes many of the weird- and whimsically-designed balloons seen at the festival today.⁣
