Ok today was a VERY busy day for us! Weather is AWESOME!
Jackson: Beautiful
Hotel: Awesome
Room: Fab
Location: Perfect
Food: Great
Guides: Landon and Daniel are Making this an AWESOME trip!
We did the Hot Air Balloon ride early (6am) Had lunch at the Jackson Hole Playhouse (very fun) and then White Water Rafting!!
WWR was a BLAST! I will get pics up later. I will say as awesome as the balloon rides are we were a bit disappointed. We paid ALLOT of money for this excursion. Its the most we have ever paid for an excursion. Keep in mind this had nothing to do with ABD we booked this on our own.
The Bottom Line: 3 balloons holding 12 people each however the gondola is separated into quarters. 3x3 think large square at best. They put 3 adults in one square which made a very exciting start turn cumbersome at best very quickly. We could not move at ALL.
After my husband and I got back to the hotel we figured out why were not able to call this experience amazing. They basically overbooked the day. This is the only day we could have done it however if you are overbooked give me the option of keeping the res or canceling. Knowing what we know now we would have cancelled. They only go out once a day and that is at first light as long as the weather cooperates. I would have hated missing it
however when I say I was in a complete strangers personal space I am not kidding. Way way to close.
We are going to send an email to the company just to say hey we want to give you guys a heads up about our experience. What they decide to do with it is not really of concern we just feel for what we paid we need to give them the feedback.
I am passing out writing this! Catch up with you all soon!
