Coolest Pictures!



OK - since its the weekend - I was in Sonoma last weekend on a little R&R. So here are two of the COOLEST pictures I think I have taken.

I am at about 500 feet over Charles Schulz airport in a hot air balloon. This is a Horizon Air Q400 taking off.

Thanks to Scott and the Crew for the fun time Wine Country Balloon Tours

If you ever want to do this - its expensive but what a view!!!!

The pictures were taken as we were over the southern end of the runway. If you an aviation buff this is quite a place and to be highly recommended.

For a real rarity - we actually took off and landed from exactly the same field. it was nearly in the middle of the hangers - but - well we are dealing with professionals here.

And despite the wait (2 hour delay waiting for the fog to clear) this was a great trip.

Cheers
