Then they lit the burners to get hot air inside the balloon.
The balloons are so big, they had to keep straightening out the balloon as it opened up.

We would go up about 1,000 feet a minute.
This is a picture of another balloon by us.
We had so much fun!
Everyone should go on a hot air balloon ride.
I've always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride! I'm jealous!
