Does hot-air ballooning go here? Not sure but it felt natural so here goes:
Thanks to my best man, my good lady and I got the chance to try it out.
It's hard to describe the feeling of being blown along 2.100m up in nothing
more than an oversized laundry basket with only the occasional blast of
propane breaking the complete silence. Scary, beautiful, oldfashioned and
surprisingly exciting. Four balloons went up which made for a good group,
taking off gently, just missing a pine tree, then back down low to graze
along the corn before zooming up through two layers of cloud over some very
cool looking tracks for mountain biking (a tale for another day!). After an
hour or so we bumped down and capsized in a very wet muddy field sending
rabbits scampering for cover. The full experience didn't really hit us
until we were on the ground but it was all good. I recomment it!!! Fotos
