I think I'll call this mini landmark the Rideau River Rock... it sits near Sussex, just before the river tumbles over the falls into the #OttawaRiver.
It is my easy check to see how high or low the water is in the summer, and in the winter it is enahnced by ice and snow to create a lovely little sculptural shape.

The sunrise began to break through the clouds, and the balloons started to take flight. It was a serene and tranquil moment, a stark contrast to the lively evening concert :-)

Hot-air balloons took off at Montgolfières Gatineau early this morning (free access).

I understand that hot-air ballooning isn't considered an environmentally friendly activity due to the emissions of CO2. However, given the number of people enjoying the spectacle, I believe its environmental impact might be less significant than it appears.

Good morning from Gatineau, Quebec. Sunrise over Ottawa River at 77 mm. Just before the Hot-air balloon take-off. Stay connected :-) #MontgolfieresGatineau #Gatineau #quebec #sunrise #OttawaRiver #boat #sky #outdoors #Canada
