An English woman released a helium balloon into the sky over Birmingham, England, to commemorate the anniversary of her father’s death.
“Sometimes when I speak to my dad, I look up into the sky. So the balloon, I hoped it would travel up there to him,” Nicola Bowler, a nurse, said. “My dad wasn’t very well-traveled. He didn’t go very far. So to see how far this has traveled would mean loads to him. He’d be laughing at all this.”Bowler and her husband released a number of standard small helium balloons on Sept. 2 along with one star-shaped balloon that said “Always missed but never forgotten Dad / Derek, 26 Apr 50 - 02 Sep 2018.
But travel it did, all the way to Troszkowo, a village in an area of northeastern Poland dotted with lakes where farmer Radoslaw Gach found it on the ground near his home, not far from where his cows graze.“It made me feel a bit sad and a bit happy that the daughter remembers her father and on the anniversary of his death releases such information,” he said. He texted the number, taking Bowler by surprise.
