DH and i went on a balloon ride this morning in Temecula. it was awesome. i didn't realize we had taken off till i looked down. it is really a very smooth ride. it was a little strange to be looking down on birds in flight. but it was a lot of fun.
I've been wanting to do that! Do you have any photos?Originally Posted by goonie

Did you get to eat while you were up there?
The price doesn't sound bad. It isn't though we're going to take weekly or monthly balloon rides.Originally Posted by goonie

no, we didn't eat up there. there was 8 of us and the flight lasted about 1hr. they had a continental breakfast after and were serving mimosas.
the flight we took was $280 for both of us. there is a 'sweetheart' flight for just 2 people and that ran about $500. you get to eat and drink champagne while up. but it sure was a lot of fun.i was thinking this is like a live google earth map
thanks for the tip on skysailing. maybe try that next year.Originally Posted by Whisky'sDad
Since you are out there in Temecula, you should check out the glider rides out in Warner Springs! I couldn't do a balloon, but i tried the glider ride and WHAT A RUSH!!!! I'm scared of heights so I was pretty tense the whole time. When I did it in '98, it was like $50 a person, I think....

On a side note, are you going to the 25th Anniv. Goonies celebration up here next year?
