Up, Up and Away...

....in a BIG ORANGE Balloon.


This morning we went up and up (400 ft.), but we didn't go away. What a perfect morning to take a ride in the infamous (?) Orange balloon which hovers up and down Irvine's Great Park.














The balloon's gondola is nice because you can actually walk around it and get a 360 degree view of blue. And because we went first thing this morning there were only 6 of us and the pilot. So it made for a very nice quiet ride. (one I would highly recommend).



















The Great Park is on the old El Toro airbase, so it was pretty interesting to see the old airport/runway markings.











What a nice way to start our day.
