Against the sun, it looks like the sun is moving west faster than the balloons, and maybe it really is. Many a philosopher might argue that balloons are racing the sun, but physicists would surely disprove that. From a physical point of view, balloons look completely uninteresting. Undoubtedly, the children will be the most interested - just yesterday one little girl did not cry in wonder that the balloons might burst.
And what about the ribbon?
The ribbon that each of the trio of balloons is tied to so they don't pop. It's obviously tied tight enough because the balloons don't really leak. But that's nothing special. However, it might surprise you that no one, except perhaps the person who released the balloons into the sky, has any idea what color the ribbon is. It is so shiny that the sky is reflected in it in the light and it is not visible at all in the dark. When the sun shines as brightly as it does now, the ribbon sparkles like a drop of dew, and few people can look directly at it for more than a few moments. What do those balloons actually look like?. People often ask. Otherwise, how would they look - like normal fairground balloons of medium size, just inflated. The red one seems a little smaller next to the blue and green, but that's probably just an optical illusion, and even if it really was a little smaller, really only a little.
The wind hardly blows
So at first glance it might seem that the balloons are not moving at all. They just float calmly in the air. Since the sun is shining brightly and you would search the sky from east to west for a cloud in vain, the balloons act like a kind of mirage in the middle of the desert. In short, far and wide there is nothing, just greenish grass, a bright blue sky and three brightly colored fairground balloons that are almost imperceptibly swaying neither too high nor too low above the ground. If there wasn't deep greenish grass under the balloons, but perhaps a dry road or concrete, you might be able to see their colored shadows - the way the bright sunlight passes through the semi-translucent colored balloons. But because of the ubiquitous grass, the shadows of the balloons can hardly be seen, let alone be able to tell what color these shadows are. If a casual passer-by saw balloons like this, he would surely think that they have been flying around like this for perhaps a thousand years.
They still more or less keep their height and don't move sideways too much
