Take the grandkids on a balloon ride.  Allan was cautious about heights but Brendan had no fear.  What a blast

 

 

 

 

Happy 45th birthday to Alex

We did go in a balloon at Disney Springs, even if it was tethered. Ascended 400ft in the air and saw all across the Walt Disney World resort at night. 

 

in camp for 5 years straight 

 

Hot air balloon ride

Rode in a hot air balloon on New Year's Day in Cairns, Australia. It was heaps of fun despite the fact that we landed in a cow pasture and had to roll the balloon up ourselves. I was 15 at the time, and remember the heat licking my arms.

The landing was a bit rough, as was the idea that there were 12 or so of us crammed into a little basket and underfoot was one sheet of mere plywood.  Other than that it was spectacular.  What a view, so serene, and so high up with no wings, just floating...

For my birthday last year I had a chance to do a hot air balloon ride in Lake Geneva, WI. My fiance and I did the sunrise balloon ride which was beautiful and it was a crisp morning. I would love to do it again.

Saw the sun rise over the Nile 2008

Probably the best adventure experience I've had

Very small in those baskets, and it took 3 times before weather conditions were a go, but it was fun.

Engaged in a hot air balloon.

Completed in November 2012 with the USA Hot Air Balloon Team.  Went on the sunrise ride, absolutely breathtaking.  A little chilly though :) 

Early morning balloon ride over the beautiful Napa Valley vineyards with my Dad during our CIA Boot Camp trip!

 Was surprised by my husband on our 5th year anniversary.

 Great - over Stratford on Avon

Balloon ride from Lugano, Switzerland, into Italy.  Champagne breakfast to celebrate Michelle's birthday.  It was better than either of us imagined.  I highly recommend this as a life experience.

 

did this in June 2005, fantastic experience, would do it - only without the crash landing!!
