I would love to go up in a hot air balloon, but I guess I’ll have to settle for the excitement of seeing “Oz The Great and Powerful” on March 8th!

Too bad it doesn’t look like it will be anywhere near me. That is really cool, though!

How neat :). I’m in Michigan so nowhere near the tour but I love spotting hot air balloons in the sky.
Oh jeez… I really wanted to have a tour to Oz Balloon Tour!
It’s really cool.
Very fun! I’ve never been up in a balloon, but I love looking at them.
Wow! That would be so cool!!
i am to much of a chicken to get in a hot air balloon :/ love to look at them though and when i was little we had about 20 of them land in our backyard (we had a lot of property) which was really cool!
I can’t wait for this movie.
WOW – this balloon is like the coolest thing I’ve seen and yes, I totally want to see the movie
