21. Understand KW, that I am just jealous

because you got to have such a neat free ride AND also because you possess the know how to do those animted gif things...

[KitchenWitch]

25. is cool!

I can't believe the capitalists in our community are NOT charging for the balloon ride!

:shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

10. The best part of the ride was...

It was FREE, gratis, no money!

:woohoo:

It is not totally a hot air balloon ride since it is tethered, but it was still a cool experience.

The balloon is part of what is going to be the Orange County Great Park which is located on what was formerly the El Toro Marine Base. The ride operates Thursday through Sunday from 10 AM to 4 PM weather permitting. And it is free until the end of the year.

18. How cool!

I'd admit to crying and begging for my life if I got up there, but I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D

[KitchenWitch]

22. Believe me - inside I was crying and begging for my life

But I must maintain a level of fearlessness for the little one lest she becomes as phobic as I am (so far she is not.)

[ikojo]

I'd be too frightened to look down. :scared:
