Birds eye view!

 Back of Alans head.....setting up the ballons
 Setting up the ballon in the middle of the street!
 THIS IS US!
 "Look how High I am MOM"

 COMING in for a landing!
 The very tecnical landing of the balloon ....CATCH IT!
 its down!
 /////deflating ballon
(Yes this tiny basket held 3 large adults!!)

We where so lucky this week when Alan came home and told me we won 2 free tickets to ride a hot air ballon!!!  Crazy huh??  So off to Antelope Island we climbed in a very small wicker basket and flew over the island.  It was so peaceful in the air and sooooooo quiet!  It was fun to help them set up the ballon, fly so high and so fast in the air, have a skidding landing, and then help them deflate and put the ballon away!
Certainly something I would love to do again and something I will never forget!!
