Day 6 November 3rd
16 of us excitedly gathered before sunrise to go on a hot air balloon ride. One of the most anticipated excursions on our trip. This was a must do on my Bucket List and to experience this in Egypt was beyond imagination. Hundreds of balloons rose in the sky. The sun was just rising. It gave everyone a wonderful view of the Valley of the Kings and the Nile.
Seeing a bird’s eye view of the valley was awesome.
The process of filling the balloon with hot air was more tedious than expected. Until the sun completely got up, the morning was very chilly. Our balloon filled, and we loaded into the huge baskets. We gently arose up into the sky, and the chill was gone. The awe of seeing literally hundreds of balloons floating around you as you soared into the sky. A Morning that will forever be in my heart.
