I have always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride ever since I was a little girl.  I can remember whenever I saw one floating in the sky thinking to myself how lucky they must be to be up there.  What are they seeing?!  It was so rare to see them floating in the sky, so whenever I did, it was awe inspiring - I was captivated. I am not a thrill seeker or do things for a rush but just the science behind having a nylon fabric hold you in the sky with hot air blows my mind.
