One of the most exciting things I’ve ever done was this hot air balloon ride – untethered! I was great as we lifted off but when I saw that small private jet go by in the distance and we were higher than it? Ummmmm death grip on the side of the basket; like that was going to do anything but I’d do it again in a heartbeat! This image really shows the depth and scale of things from my vantage point. Like the two other balloons that took off behind us that look almost like two toy balloons in the distance.

WOW!! You are so right… the other balloons look like little toys! I have yet to ride in a hot air balloon… I see them daily and it is on my bucket list!!
Just do it!!!! I’ll go with you if it helps 😉
I will hold you to that!
Fantastic. I have a fear of heights, but I’d still like to go up in a balloon.
It is an experience!!! Give it a try 🙂
That’s very cool view!
It gets rather chilly that high up in the air too! 🙂
I wish I had your strength to do this, both hubby and I are fearful of heights!
It was our anniversary present to ourselves and it was nerve wracking for a minute at the high heights. When we came down lower I was fine.
Gorgeous photo! I love that this was taken from a hot air balloon…I’m too scared to ride in one, but I can imagine it was an amazing experience! 🙂
Thanks and it was! It was!
This is something I’d love to do someday. Good for you going for it.
We did a sunrise ride and it was amazing!!! Do it!
I’m not so sure I’d have the nerve for THIS! (nice shot too)
But you go into creepy buildings 😉
It is all about control – or the fallacy of control
Wow! Fantastic experience, and perfect challenge response. Those other balloons do look like tiny toys.
Thanks 🙂 I think it was right around this altitude that I realized I am way up in the air in just a basket – eeek! LOL
