The young students of the Scientific High School acted as guides for the courses in the morning, explaining how this fascinating and romantic means of transport works.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Then, in the afternoon, everyone had the opportunity to experience a \u201climited flight\u201d<\/strong> (the balloons were secured by rope to the ground, but still reached a height of about twenty metres). Particularly the disabled people, who, thanks to special devices, were able to get on board. \u201c<strong>It was thrilling<\/strong> to see whole families, with children also in wheelchairs, getting into the balloons and experiencing real, intense moments of joy,\u201d Lapenta explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSesto nel Pallone\u201d was one of the initiatives during the <strong>Disability Weekend<\/strong>, the project of the European Sports Council, organised thanks to the commitment of the town administration and of the municipal tourist board.<\/p>\n<p>The flying experts also included <strong>the Venegoni family<\/strong> from Fagnano Olona, who have flown balloons for three generations.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting was made possible thanks to the involvement of numerous balloon owners, who had come especially from the United Kingdom, and who were astonished not only by the beauty of the places, but also by the incredible stream of people coming to this event.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, significant contributions were made by <strong>easyJet<\/strong> to three associations that provide assistance to the disabled: the <strong>Fondazione Piatti<\/strong>, the <strong>Associazione Genitori Bambini Down<\/strong> and the <strong>Associazione Tommy e Cecilia<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe involvement of easyJet as a sponsor was made possible thanks to the great enthusiasm of one pilot, Jordan, who had got to know us and who had publicised this project at the airline.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first international
