Bucket List

Monday, January 3, 2011

I recently celebrated a special birthday....My daughters and future son in law surprised me with an amazing gift, something I have wanted to do for a very long time..

We were up early 3am and headed to Camden, NSW Australia to join a team of ballooners.
I was so excited one of my daughters was a little nervous she is scared of heights. After joining others we travelled a few ks in a bus to a farm just outside of Cobbity.

We all had to help unload the balloon.The paddock was knee deep with wet grass.The sunrise was superb. and its colours were
out of this world. There were four balloons up in the air at once ,we reached a height of 2500 metres. I could have soared higher.We flew for around three hours skimming over creeks and trees. Played cat and mouse with another balloon. After landing we returned to where we had set off and celebrated with a champagne breakfast..
