Hot Air Balloon Pictures – Above the Clouds in Spain

Hot Air Balloon clouds photo

Above the clouds in a hot air balloon...

For years, the British weather thwarted my dream of floating above the earth in a hot air balloon. Today, with rather trembling limbs, my dream came true in the Spanish Pyrenees. My legs are still trembling, while my heart is skitting around like a small child who’s just discovered an unguarded box of chocolates. So until my mind comes back to earth, I just wanted to share a quick taste of my hot air balloon pictures. Enjoy!

Disclosure: I soared above the clouds as a guest of Visit Costa Brava As usual, I am free to say what I like…

    Fabulous pictures. I always wanted to go up in a hot air balloon and my dream came true last year when my husband bought me a gift certificate for a hot air balloon ride for my birthday. It was amazing, an experience I will never forget. I blogged about it (search for “hello-dreamers”)
    Perhaps one day I can try it in Spain as well.

    Lovely photos. It´s something I´ve always wanted to do.

    I´d particularly like to fly over Jaén where I live across Cordoba to Sevilla. Have you any idea how many kms they can travel?

    It takes over 2.5 hours from home to Sevilla by car so I guess a whole day or more to go there and back by balloon!

    Yes, I’ve always wanted to – too scaredy cat for sky diving (unlike you)! You can do it near here, I think. One day! Gorgeous photos.
