Thursday Thirteen - Images From My Hot Air Balloon Ride


I''ve had these on my camera for a while and it's high time I share.  They're by no means professional grade photographs of the dual balloon flights, but I  hope you enjoy...

    I would love to do this, too! Wow! I think Autumn has to be the best time to go on a balloon ride, with all the colors changing, etc.

    ...sigh...

    Happy TT!

    You had a beautiful day for it! The last few pictures are especially interesting to me because I've never seen the equipment that way.

    I love hot air ballooning. Cool pics. Did you have champagne after landing?

    These are lovely photos. I had a chance to ride a hot air balloon once at the local fair they had free rides. They'd take you up about fifty feet then bring you right down again. Sort of a hot air balloon elevator. I went with my sister (we were both in our twenties) and she thought it would be boring so we didn't do it.

    Twice now I have seen a hot air balloon even go right over my home. It so lovely to see the balloons fill the sky.

    Gorgeous! I want to do this some time in the next year or two. I have an issue with heights, but I'm willing to deal for the chance to see these viewpoints first hand. :)

    Happy T13,

    Thanks for the kind comments. We did enjoy sparkling wine after the fact, with a story on how early French balloon enthusiasts would garner favor with the unsuspecting landowners whose property they landed upon. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thursday!
