Up! Up and Away!~

don't be misled by the title, this time we just got to go Up in KL but Away is not permitted by the authority. :)

in one bright sunday morning, we participated in a hot air balloon workshop organized by JCI KL West at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. if you noticed, it was a very fine day as the sky was so blue without much clouds in it. after a quick registration, story telling cum briefing session started and everyone was eager to start getting hands on experience on setting up the hot air balloon! we were divided into three groups for tertiering, ballooning and another one that set up the basket and gas (term forgotten, oops!). after a test run of the installed hot air balloon, it's our try to ride on it!

be careful of your head! the burner is kinda close and the heat is superrrr warm!

the ride up to have a bird view of kl was only about 5mins. i wish the next time i ride on a hot air balloon i could have a tour around the area! of course the scenery must be nice or else it would be a waste not capture any photos from such memorable experience. :)

thanks to the bunch of enthusiastic young men in JCI KL West for organizing such wonderful event or else i wouldn't know when i have a chance to experience this hot air balloon ride. we had enjoyed our sunday morning very much and the photos captured in this bright fine day are just gorgeous! don't you agree?
