Up, Up, and Upway!

...Yeah, that looks like fun. I know, I know, what's the difference between it and a hot air balloon, really? Not much, except that it looks the one in the beloved movie!

Also, that's some beautiful imagery right there.

Professional cluster balloonist (i.e. many smaller balloons instead of one giant one) Jonathan Trappe flew his makeshift Ellie House from North Carolina to Leon, Mexico. It may not be South America, but it's still amazing. You can read more about Jonathan at his website.
