Hot air balloon ride

Sunday, August 16, 2009


My husband and I took a hot air balloon ride in Kapadokya in Turkey three years ago. It was an amazing experience - so breathtakingly beautiful and serene. The early start before sunrise adds to the magical quality of the flight. The silence is only broken by the intermittent roar of the propane burner. It's hard to describe the wonderful feeling of floating high above the landscape, climbing and falling as the sun slowly rises.

We've discovered an Irish company that offer balloon rides in Ireland. We are going to celebrate our up-coming anniversary in another early morning flight!
