Lisle, IL—(ENEWSPF)— eNews Park Forest photographer Wendy Heise used her eNewsPF.com Press Pass to hitch a ride on a hot air balloon last Saturday in Lisle, IL.

According to event organizers at lisleballoons.com, "The Lisle Eyes to the Skies Balloon Festival began 25 years ago as a way to commemorate Lisle’s Bicentennial as a settlement.  The first festival lasted one day and featured 10 balloons and the Fifth Dimension performing in a small pavilion." The event is produced by the Lisle 4th of July Committee. While not an event located in Park Forest, we thought some might enjoy a trip with our photographer.

Take a ride with Wendy and the Re/Max Balloon Team as they sail away. Your musical accompaniment for the trip is by Johann Pachelbel, Canon in D.

Turn on your speakers, please press the arrow in the lower left hand corner of the view screen below, and enjoy.
