Your adventure will begin before the sun rises.  We meet 30 minutes before sunrise and lay the balloon out for cold inflation.  Once Wil has stood the balloon up, you will be invited on board for your pre-flight briefing and the adventure of a lifetime!   You'll ascend into the air and find the thrill of take-off replaced by the peacefulness of floating at the speed of the wind. 

Wil will point out any interesting landmarks and wildlife such as rabbits, deer and coyotes that you may have the pleasure of spying from above.  The crew will capture your flight on camera and provide you with your own personal cd before you leave.  Once you have landed, you'll be regaled with the history of the post-flight champagne toast as you enjoy a delicious brunch with mimosas.  

What to Wear
Wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting dusty - jeans and sneakers are a great choice. Open toed shoes and high heels are not allowed.  Long hair should be tied back or worn under a hat.  Be sure to dress for early morning temperatures and "layer" so you can stay comfortable as the day warms up. Hats and sunglasses are recommended. 
How many people
Because this flight is so unique, the balloon is limited to 4 adult passengers. This enables each passenger to truly enjoy his or her first balloon flight.  If we need to squeeze more than four in a balloon we can arrange that also.
How much time to allow
The whole adventure will take approximately 3 1/2 hours.
