Balloon ride over Napa

Day 2 in Napa. We woke up at 6am again to get ready for our 7am hot air balloon ride.  It was quite the sight to see the magnitude of the balloons while they were on the ground.  
Our balloon on the ground as they were blowing it up with huge loud fans.


The men holding our basket down so we didn't fly away before the pilot was ready.







First and failed landing attempt. They throw the men on the ground a rope and they are supposed to try and pull the balloon and the basket and the 25 people in the basket toward the ground.  Yea. No wonder it failed.
We did make a safe landing a little further away in an empty field. Andrew wasn't quite sick of me taking pictures of us yet.  It's coming. Don't worry.
