butterflies and yes it looks like it will go ahead!!!

Comment Published at 18:1218:1219 comments19 comments25 Visits25 VisitsReport

hi guys

the butterflies in my tummy are getting noticeable and bigger!!!

i rang global ballooning today to see how saturday morning is looking. the weather looks fine and they said that todays went ahead and tomorrows is going ahead at this stage so every chance that saturday is fine

they said its not that windy (thats usually there main concern)

apparently you do stand up for about 1 hour and we are to work as a team and as an adventure which means we help the pilot pack and unpack the ballooon!!!

ive got to make sure the digital camera and video cameras are charged up ! keeping myself occupied with this might help!

oopsies what have i done!!! oh well no backing out now!!!!

(see my earlier blog on 3 days to go countdown.................)

cheers annie

wow ems thats a great price

yeah im trying to be positive

i think age plays a part im now 51 and the boys are grown up.

i dont think i would have been game enough when i was in my  twenties.

my one main concern then was that my boys were very young and i wouldnt risk it back then for the boys sake!!!

now its diferent they are adults!!

cheers annie

When I was a kid, mum paid for my dad to go up in a balloon.. We got to go out early before school and watch them all set up. Oh how much fun it was to watch.   Dad had a most amazing time.

I am sure you will too...

ENJOY...
