Our Royal balloon was one of 60 over balloons that took flight in the early morning skies on 14 October 2011. We rose from Ground Zero and climbed, slowly but steadily, to a height of 440 feet or so at its highest. I was worried for Darby (and secretly for myself) before the day. All fears however were brushed aside when I saw the colourful balloons in the sky. Darby too conquered his weak knees and whipped out his camera and soon, we were elbowing each other inside the cramped basket to find space to take the best shots our cameras can possibly capture.
After we landed, we ran over the balloon like kids and drank champagne popped by our female pilot. Each of us also got a medal to celebrate our courage and the flight.
We were all smiling radiantly on our way back to the hotel. What a brilliant morning it was!
