I wanted to surprise my husband for our anniversary with something different, fun and a little romantic. Since my husband is 70, and I am just a step behind, I wanted something adventurous without hassle. We found it with the California Dreamin/ South Coast Winery package.. and more. A terrific little villa in a vineyard, with a fireplace and jacuzzi tub after a lovely dinner in the Winery's restaurant and a good nights sleep, we were picked up, at our door, by a courteous driver at exactly 5:35 a.m., whisked to a lighted tent in a vineyard where we met several other people that were also taking the balloon flight that day. It had rained lightly the day before and a storm was coming in later in the day, so I was afraid we would not go up, but our very experienced pilot, David, checked and rechecked conditions, before and during the flight. We went up in two balloons, 6 passengers in one and 12 passengers in the second balloon. There was an amazing sunrise while the crews were inflating the balloons, which was accomplished very quickly and we climbed into the gondolas. Pictures were taken and we ascended to a magnificent view of the country side and the other balloon inflating below us. We safely drifted/flew around for an hour while our pilot kept a watchful eye on the storm, landing in a field just minutes before intermittent sprinkles began. It was Glorious! A lovely continental breakfast back in the vineyard with a complementary bottle of wine for our anniversary completed our adventure. We had a great time and recommend it for any occasion, or no occasion at all.
