Weekend in the Bay Area | Napa Hot Air Balloon Trip 🎈 🎈Sunrise
🎈 Hot Air Balloon trip in Napa Valley. We set off just after 4am – all of this for a hot air balloon trip, go figure~
We got to see a gorgeous sunrise.
Sadly, our camera couldn't fully capture its beauty. To remember the stunning views, we shot several mini videos too 📷
Flying over the colorful hot air balloons, you can see the extending mountain ranges and picturesque vineyards. The whole world seems to turn beautiful. The sunrise in Napa Valley definitely makes my top 3 sunrises. The soft morning sunlight shining bit by bit into the valley, lighting up the lush green landscape, whether it be vineyards or grassland. The sky is filled with colorful hot air balloons hovering high and low. It's beyond beautiful, simply magnificent.
When you just take off, you can still clearly see the ground, houses, fields, roads, and vehicles. Things slowly start to blur as you ascend higher, then you can view all of Napa Valley's wineries, look up north to see Mt. St. Helena, west to see the Vaca Mountains, and you can barely make out San Francisco from the south~
The balloon ascends as the sun gradually rises, the entire valley gets illuminated – it's picturesque, like a scene straight out of a fairy-tale. The balloon operators will maneuver the balloon to view different sights.
🎈 After a little more than an hour of flying, we landed in a field.
The sun was fully up by this time,
leaving behind beautiful shadows.
Upon landing in the field, we saw people jogging in the morning. The sunlight at that moment was absolutely dreamy, we simply couldn't look away. The shadow of the balloon coupled with the rustic scenery, every picture was postcard perfect.
🌟 Practical tips:
You'll usually need to book your hot air balloon trip in advance. It's best to reserve a few weeks ahead, they're super popular! In Napa Valley, many local travel agencies specialize in hot air balloon trips.
