From Japan to SL

There are yachts and canoes provided at the park, but the best bet is a balloon ride. It takes about 40 minutes for the best overview of the Park.

I have experienced real balloon ride at Aspen in RL. I think the balloon is the best way to observe the nature. You can enjoy a 360-degree field of vision of a mid-forest or fen, not only the birds-eye view.




You can look down directly into the water by floating just above the surface. At Aspen, I had a chance to approach a group of fox babies playing at an open space around their den, by descending silently. Then the burner roared suddenly and they went to earth swiftly.




Came in sight an island of white houses, named ‘Santorini’ .




Each house is meticulously decorated with nice furniture. It is allowed to enter in them freely. It is enjoyable to sit for a while with a bit of a mood of vacation home.




In RL, the captain said, “It will be hard to come back if we pass the mountains. Let us find a landing spot now”. They said it is a custom to drink the toast with champagne every time when a balloon landed. This balloon returns to the start area, but a hot air balloon in RL can select the flight direction to a degree by selecting height to pick up suitable wind. Also at Aspen, there were three balloons departed at the same time but they flew to different direction respectively. They say that there is a place named Albuquerque Square where it is possible to return to the starting position.
