We went on an evening expedition. The weather was lovely, our pilot was engaging and amusing.
It was much more quite and peaceful than I had anticipated it would be.
The only problem is that we gave credit card info when we booked (my dad's...it was a gift to three of us) so we were under the assumption that the excursion was paid for. Luckily we all decided to bring our personal items with us on the balloon...because when we landed we were each called over and asked to pay, that the payment info given before the flight was just a placeholder (but then....why were we the only 3 called over to pay...?) A minor inconvenience and a surprise $150 each of us had not been expecting to pay. But the actual flight/balloon ride was wonderful!
