So Sarah has been planning a birthday surprise for me for some time and today I finally found out what it was.. this afternoon we drove up to Snohomish area, and went on a hot air balloon ride.. It was very cool. Never been on one before and it was a real experience. I took a load of photos which I’ll be putting up online real soon. Just hope they came out fairly well. Even if not, it was a memorable experience and I can highly recommend it to anyone who has never done it before. I was apprehensive at first, but it was actually a very serene and mellow way to fly. The only mildly worrying moment was when we landed. There was a chance we would tip on our side and be dragged through the field, but our pilot was very good and that didn’t happen (although we did lean over a fair distance). All in all, a fun afternoon out!
