Hot Air Balloon Ride

The girls enjoyed a wonderfully scenic hot air balloon ride this afternoon!!

 

They flew SO high that when they looked down, all the people looked JUST like ants!!

 

There were fierce winds to navigate….Oh, the thrill! The excitement!!

 

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

 

Somehow Mark’s ride wasn’t quite as eventful…. Β πŸ˜‰

…. but it was still a LOT of fun!! πŸ™‚
