Mark
Barnes has flown his balloon over his home county many times.
But
only rarely has the wind carried him right over the heart of Oxford.

| The
observatory at Green College |
It
blew straight over the city centre on the morning that 成人论坛 Oxford
went along for the ride.
The
mellow stone of the ancient colleges glows crisply in the sunlight
just after dawn, before the streets are filled with traffic and
fumes.
But
the city's modern features are also striking from the air.
Our
gallery shows some of the city's most famous landmarks, as well
as rowers on the Thames, Cherwell School, the former Oxford Prison
and an ordinary suburban street.
We
took off from Cutteslowe Park, to the north of the city, and headed
almost due south.
For
fun, you could look at the pictures and try to work out exactly
what route we took.
