    We had an amazing evening on our hot air balloon ride! Jim, our pilot, and the entire crew were…read morefriendly, professional, and incredibly informative. Jim shared fascinating stories and explained why weather conditions are so critical for a safe flight. He also pointed out landmarks along our route and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Jim even helped us check a couple more items off our bucket list--we got to gently touch the St. Croix River and brush the top of a 40-foot tree! It was an unforgettable adventure. A few tips for anyone considering a hot air balloon ride: Safety always comes first, and that means the weather has to be just right. Aamodt's Hot Air Balloon Rides wants you to fly, but they can't control Mother Nature, so be patient if your flight is delayed or rescheduled, we waited 2 1/2 years for the perfect night. Again be patient, it's worth it. Wear a hat, especially if you're tall, because the heat from the burners can get pretty warm. If everyone in your basket agrees, bringing a small Bluetooth speaker for some background music can add to the experience. Also, be prepared to stand for the duration of the flight and know that you'll need to be reasonably agile to climb into and out of the basket. We had a 75-year-old gentleman in our basket who did great with a little assistance. When you think the experience can't get any better, they end it with champagne, a charcuterie board, and strawberries, giving you a chance to talk with the rest of the crew and the other balloon guests. Our favorite was Stephen, who captured wonderful pictures of our ride from the ground and then made us a keepsake hot air balloon out of a champagne cork and wire. Top notch! This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I highly recommend Aamodt's Hot Air Balloon Rides. A special thank you to all the people of Stillwater and everyone boating on the St. Croix River who waved and cheered as we floated overhead--you made an already incredible evening even more memorable!
