Our first glimpse |
Getting closer |
Almost down |
Always happy to see them land safely |
I think this one got lost |
They are close enough that they could jump if they had too! Just kidding, although, that is what I would have been thinking if it was me up there! |
Well, I did a little research on the subject of hot air ballooning to better understand the physics behind it, and I am now convinced more than ever, it isn't a sport for me! Especially after reading that the two main structures are an envelope and a wicker basket!! (Wicker has been out since the 80's!) Oh, and I can't leave out the fuel tanks and the open flame on board too!!! (Mamma said don't ever play with fire!) In my world, that doesn't translate into fun!
And furthermore, if an "envelope" can be used for 400 to 500 flights, who's the lucky rider taking the 399th or the 499th trip?
Not me!
