April Hot Air Balloon Ride Is Perfect 50th Birthday Present
Waiting in the early hours, cold and excited in Napa Valley, CA, for the balloon to fill up.
See how tall the basket is? I won’t be falling out. I’m between my son and daughter. A nice place to be when celebrating a 50th birthday.
Some people are just natural show-offs! See that guy in the background getting into the basket? He had NO trouble getting in or out.
Bye! See you later: 7 miles south and 1 hour, 20 minutes later.
To read about my trip, go here. To see pictures that my sista took, go here. To read why I went on this trip, go here.
Thank you, family, for spoiling me again. đŸ™‚
