What a Load of Hot Air

What a Load of Hot Air

When we were in the North Island of NZ last, we took a Balloon Flight up from Hastings.
I took this image from inside the Balloon, as it was filling up with air.

    Great shot Larry – these hot air balloons always fascinate me but scare me to death!

    It’s sooo quiet when you are up, you don’t even notice.

    did you get right in or shoot through the flames ? Hope you had a great flight!!!!
    Next trip to WA, maybe we should go HAB in the Avon valley!

  • Larry Davis replied

    Hello Sunshine.
    God it good to hear from you.
    Dawn & I were wondering about you.
    Hoping you are OK.
    We are off the airways for the next couple of weeks….
    Off to the Philippines.
    But yes… If we can get back to WA, HAB would be a bonus.
