High above it all

We spend a good amount of time fairly low to the ground with a great view of the sun temple and the other balloons over the mountains and valleys of Mexico. Then we start going up! I don’t know how high we were but it was high! What a cool view when you don’t have any windows to block the view. We can see a volcano peaking out from the clouds in the distance and we can see for miles in all directions! I can see why we wouldn’t want to do this on a rainy day. They slowly start to land us and the pilot has so much control he lands the big basket right onto the trailer to bring it back to the start. A group of workers has to fold up the balloon once it deflates. Which looks like the ultimate tent folding task and did not look fun. To commemorate our flight we cheers with some wine! Highly recommend that experience no matter how afraid of heights you are - the balloon is so so steady and how could you miss seeing the world from up that high. After we got back we had cinnamon roll croissants which were so yummy!Read more
