We packed our stuff and headed to Julian's site to test his huge kite/balloon. Since the balloon was so big, we decided to attach two cameras, a canon powershot and a flip. In retrospect, that was a bad idea since we did not test the balloon before.

And here is the balloon in the sky

Apparently the string got cut at the 500 ft mark. Here is Jeff and Julian running after the balloon

Here you could see the balloon as a small black dot in the sky. Hopefully some lucky guy has our cameras.
