Skywatch Friday: Balloon Ride over Melbourne, Australia

My husband and I took a balloon ride over the city in 2007. It was a memorable experience.

The ride started at about 5:30 am. 10 passengers got into a balloon. A few balloons were launched at the same time. It was pretty looking a the other balloons against the backdrop of orange sunrise. The ride lasted about 50 minutes.
