Barbara and I woke up at 3AM Thursday morning, February 2, 2012 and drove south from Los Angeles to Temecula, which is by San Diego (2 hour drive). It was 36 degrees F and the flames feeding hot air into the balloon kept us warm. Unlike an airplane, the silence of the balloon flight made the one-hour meandering journey very beautiful. Wine tasting was part of the tour. I regret I did not make a video of the angry woman who ran out of her home trying to shoo the balloon from landing in her vacant field. I was so fascinated by her tirade that I neglected to video it. [link] Video of flight

Thanks for the nice comment my photo from the wild balloon ride series. Floating in the air and taking photos of the earth below while enjoying the silence above was a beautiful experience.
