"The world's a nicer place in my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky
For we can fly; we can fly"
From the song "Up Up and Away,"
Lyrics by Jim Webb
Balloons have captured the fascination of people for more than 200 years. They evoke a sense of fantasy, romance and awe that is unmatched by any other form of flight. This site is dedicated to the charm and beauty of hot air ballooning, and to the community of balloonists that share this graceful art with us.
