My husband and I went on a hot balloon ride with Delmarva Balloon Rides. We had to schedule the ride twice because the first time had rainy weather. The second time had good weather. We met the business operators at their home in the dark morning. They seemed like nice, good people. We drove out in their car to a field to set up the balloon. We had to hold the balloon open while fans blew air into the balloon. Then we connected the balloon and basket. We hopped inside the basket and pulled on the cord to produce fire so the balloon lifted off the ground. The operators would go as high up in the air as we felt comfortable with, and they incorporated things such as skimming tree tops so you can pick off leaves. Be aware that if you are tall, condensation might drip on your back. Also, the balloon is dependent on the direction and speed of the wind, but we still got to go high in the sky and see a lot of scenery below us, and the farmer whose field we landed in was nice about the ordeal. I, who am afraid of heights, enjoyed the ride, while my husband, who is not afraid of heights, felt uncomfortable. I have recommended Delmarva Balloon Rides to my friends, family, and colleagues.
