E - 2007 Large Balloon Finally Goes Up!

07.03.07 - Lexington, VA - This was a very large hot air balloon and it had a lot of trouble getting upright and then it kept rocking back and forth so much from the wind, I guess. It had a large basket with a lot of people in it. You see some of them running to get into the basket for take-off. When it finally went up, the crowd cheered and the people in the balloon---well, they seem to be pretty happy! :) My sister and I rode in a hot air balloon in Statesville, NC and what a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE IT WAS! We will never forget it!
