Same balloon, different scenery…and what scenery it is!!! We call the Blue Ridge Mountains home, but when the opportunity arose to join 20 other balloons flying the “Grand Canyon of the East”, we couldn’t say no!! It’s been an absolutely stunning weekend with some of the most amazing flights we’ve ever experienced. You can be sure we will be savoring the memories (and sharing the pics) for a loooong time!! 🥰🥰

The pattern may look familiar, but there’s something extra special about a shiny new balloon! The brilliant colors of “Skywalker” are now filling the skies over Charlottesville! Welcome to the fleet!

Oh, spring, how we love your unfiltered beauty!!

If you haven’t been for a balloon ride in Central Virginia in the spring, you are missing out!!! With all the flowering trees and a plethora of shades of green dotting the landscape, the views are stunning.

We’ve been flying her for almost 25 years, and in our opinion, the spring colors beat the fall foliage for beauty and variety. Come take advantage of these gorgeous days and join us for your flight!

Do you know the story behind our #scubaballoon?? Here it is…

We get a lot of people flying with us because a hot air balloon ride is on their “bucket list”, so one day we decided it was time to think about our own “list”. At the top? Getting scuba certified! We took our first breaths underwater several years ago, and we’ve been hooked ever since. The PADI professionals at Dive Connections have been our guides and mentors in diving, so when we had the opportunity to partner with them to promote scuba diving with a hot air balloon, it was a perfect fit, and Scuba balloon took flight!

So when you see the patriotic balloon adorned with the red/white dive flag all around, honk and wave…or better yet, use it as a reminder to call Dive Connections and schedule your Discover Scuba session…it’s time to check the next thing off your own “bucket list”!!

After a week of being grounded due to strong winds, it was fabulous to get back in the air this morning!!! The fall colors are still stunning, the air is crisp and cold, the sky is clear…we’re so blessed! #blueridgeballooning #fallcolors #reflection #loveva #cville #charlottesville #virginiaisbeautiful ...
