Photo Love {Inspiration}: Floating onwards and upwards

September 27, 2010
Up, Up, and Away!

Photo from here

I haven’t been in a hot air balloon before, but I can only imagine the vistas and feelings of lightness and tranquility from the gorgeous view.  As much as I travel (including next week to Canada), I forget everything else and get a little giddy when we ascend, everything becomes smaller, and we’re up in the clouds.
Have you been on a hot air balloon ride before?
Here’s hoping that you get a beautiful and peaceful view and things are looking up.
Have a lovely week!
little luxury list

    I have been on a hot air balloon ride one time – in Luxor, Egypt, over the Valley of the Kings. I love seeing them in the sky during early morning drives through the Napa Valley. Definitely worth trying! Love the colors in that photo!

    I’ve always wanted to give this a try, and hopefully within the next few years, I will!

    i have never been either – they have them in upstate NY where my boyfriend has a house on a lake – and then out west in NJ .. but i’m scared of heights – so i’m scared to pay for it – then HAVE to land b/c i’ll be a nervous wreck!

    I’ve never been but I’ve always wanted to. Hope the balloon is as gorgeous as this one! Have fun in Canada. I just love that country. I must admit I’m totally jealous wherever it is that you’re going 🙂

    I’d LOVE to go up in a H.A.B but fear I’d be a chicken and be whimpering in the corner.

  • Midtown Girl September 27, 2010 at 19:44

    WOW from this view it is amazing just how large that balloon is, I have never been, but what an amazing experience that would be someday.

  • Jessica September 28, 2010 at 11:28

    A hot air balloon ride is definitely on my “bucket list.” And quite possibly a killer blog post – might have to speed it up!

  • Café Bellini September 28, 2010 at 20:14

    I’ve never been and I don’t think I could! I’m scared of heights!

  • Punctuation Mark September 29, 2010 at 03:34

    never done it because i’m terrified of heights but i love that image… love the bright colors lit from the back!

  • Mrs T September 30, 2010 at 05:22

    I’ve always wanted to go in one, but I’m also a little freaked out by the idea!

    My oldest friend proposed to his wife in a hot air balloon!
