Figured I’d Try Hot Air Ballooning.

Of course it wasn’t normal, why should it be?

Many people had told me that a balloon ride over Luxor was a must. Although it was never anything I really pictured myself doing, the opportunity to fly over the Nile and the valley of the Kings, I could not pass up .

The flight itself was pretty cool, although the real adventure it was all in the landing. We had the first touchdown in the middle of a field of sugarcane. We took off again, and found ourselves landing at the tops of banana trees. We finally came to rest on the banks of the Nile and based on the look on the guys faces who came to pick us up, this was not the plan. Overall, I have to say it was an awesome experience wild landing and all.

Stubs.
