Come fly with me...

Wow what a day, my fiance and I were lucky enough to receive a gift voucher for a hot air balloon ride with Hot Air Ballooning Cairns from some of our friends as an engagement present.  It's something i've always wanted to try but never really had the right excuse.

The early rise was totally worth it as we watched the first lot of balloons inflate and take off.  Perfect conditions, got to see the sun rise and the flames in the balloon kept us warm and toasty.  Not only were my partner and I celebrating our engagement it's also our 4year anniversary and though their were others in our hot air balloon it was still very romantic and we got to enjoy our champagne and delicious breakfast when we got back down.

Don't think i'll be searching hard to find an excuse to go again!
