My husband surprised me a few years ago by taking me on this hot air balloon ride. Don and his wife were just wonderful. We really had a great time with them. Don is the balloon guide and taught us a lot about ballooning. There was another couple in our balloon that shared the cost as well. I had no idea what went into such an excursion. It really takes a good sized team of people to set up and bring down the balloon. People initially feel that the cost to balloon is high but after seeing all that goes into it, I felt the price was very reasonable considering. This is something that I will definitely remember for the rest of my life. What an amazing experience!
