Hot Air Ballooning

My long awaited balloon adventure. Finally happened after waiting 10yrs & two cancellations for previous attempts. highly recommended I look forward to other opportunities to do it again. Thankyou to my beautiful husband for such a wonderful birthday present xx

Champagne at the end of our Balloon flight, balloon rolled away & basket loaded. Thanks John & Melissa for a memorable experience.
