Hot Air

...

What is it about a hot air balloon launch that is so exhilarating, so full of whimsy and wonder, that you'll just stand there in awe as they fill the chilly pre-dawn air like so many ghostly exclamation points? Why is it that just listening to the sound of the heater is enough to delight the soul?

Yes, I agree. I've flown in a lot of craft, from fighters to gliders, but never a hot air balloon, and thats something I really want to do.
