This was one of the coolest things we have ever done!!!
this was at 3:30 am... too early... but still very excited!
They picked us up at 4:05 am and took us out to this field
They loaded us up in the dark... it was very cold
we took off right at sunrise
there were two other balloons also
the view was spectacular
we were floating above the Atherton Tablelands
this is the view of the inside of our balloon
we rode in the biggest balloon in Australia
our pilot was from South Africa, his name was Sam
one of the balloons about to land
the view after we landed...
the sun rising over the apricot trees
i tried to catch the sun
the balloons taking off again
it was so much fun!!! We loved every minute of it!
Afterwards they took us to a hot breakfast with a champagne toast at a bush camp! When they dropped us off at our hotel it was only 10:30... so we went back to bed.

Looks beautiful Kelly! How many people can ride in one balloon?
Hey - I'm up early enough to catch that ride --- if only I was there.
20 people road in out balloon. Everyone took in the view and kept to themselves... it was so peaceful!
Oh, this is my dream. Good pics.
