Hot Air Balloon Rides
Explore the links to the right for hot air balloon rides over wine country.
First-time aeronauts are treated to some form of the legendary ceremony that balloonists all over the world have been sharing for more than a century. Balloonists traditionally end the flight with a toast of champagne, a practice dating back to the 1700's. The passengers join the pilot and crew in the following:
"Balloonists Prayer"
The winds have welcomed you with softness
The sun has held you in his warm hands
You have flown so high and so well
That God has joined you in your laughter
And set you gently back down
Into the loving arms of Mother Earth.
