Hot Air Ballooning!


Another honeymoon adventure that John and I did was going on a hot air balloon ride.  If I had a bucket list, riding in a hot air would be on it.  It's out of my comfort zone for sure, and I'm really happy we did it.
It started at sunrise!  There were beautiful mists all around- it was a perfect way to begin the ride
We're so high up!  I was a little uncomfortable with the heights, just that numb feeling in your feet sort of thing, but the views were unbelievable
We had company :)  There's two major hot air balloon companies in Santa Rosa.  I'm happy to report that we got the longer ride!
Our reflection!  I had to have John take this picture- I was too nervous to look straight down!
 

They typically include a champagne brunch at the end of the flight.  Sadly, ours had to be canceled, but John and I just added champagne to our hotel breakfast!

Can you imagine what it would be like in autumn?  Gorgeous!

  1. This is so amazing, I've always wanted to take a hot balloon ride. Really cool shot of the reflection...I don't blame you for being a bit nervous to take the picture. I love the rush of heights but every now and then they freak me out.
