Thanks for sharing your new ways of seeing. Your day-old baguette sandwich suggestion took me back to hoagies in Pennsylvania. Back then, the sandwiches got mushy from their ingredients because local bakers still resist sourdough in the mix.
You've encouraged me to download Komoot. It looks like a well-polished app that extends the vision Phil Sorrell had with social hiking in early Audioboom days. His twitterstream is full of active outdoors ideas: https://twitter.com/DaylightGambler/
Love the balloon story reminds me of something that happened in our own town, probably nearly twenty years back. A hot air balloon had to make an unplanned landing in one of our smallest parks, which happened to be fairly close to where we live, so we saw it make its descent People were very concerned but the pilot pulled it off very nicely and they made a safe landing without too much of an incident! Funnily enough it was also a Virgin one!
I think what had happened, was the wind literally dropped to nothing, so lost some height too early and they were not far from their intended landing spot, which of course I guess can never be too precise?? So from memory they took off after a number of minutes, regained enough height and carried on.

The passengers must have had fun!
