Gift of Three Wise Men - A Balloon Flight
Soon, just a day to receive the Three Kings of the East. You have everything prepared? Do not forget to leave water and some grass for the camels and some sweets or chocolates to sweeten your way. If your children are excited about flying in a balloon, you can encourage them to make a drawing, card or craft about the balloon flight they dream about, perhaps as in the movie Up. Surely it will be a detail that will impress their majesties. You can also leave a video of the smallest of the house reading your letter personally, or explaining with your words why deserve to be gifted with such a special gift, a balloon flight is a unique and magical opportunity to see the world from another perspective. You can decorate the house in a nice way and make the arrival to your house for the Magi is even more special.
The Three Kings are in themselves symbol of joy, tenderness and love. They carry illusion and happiness wherever they go and are always received with affection by young and old. Definitely a highly anticipated visit throughout the year. The ability to hope, to be able to believe, is something so wonderful that we should always try to keep it. It tries to encourage the little ones to wait for the Magi with illusion, because with this we foment in the children the purest feelings that are in them.
Their majesties the Magi of the East always arrive by boat to the port of Barcelona. Once there, the cavalcade starts touring the city so that everyone can greet and welcome them. But they do not always choose the boat as a means of transportation, as you know the Magi usually travel on a camel, and sometimes they have arrived at some places during a hot air balloon flight, as happened last year in Banyoles, where their majesties made their Appearance flying in balloon to greet, collect the last letters and distribute candies for all the children of the town.

On the day of the flight our plan will be the following, we will be in the early hours of the morning, at 8 in the winter and at 7 in the summer, since the balloon flight must be at dawn, when the weather is quieter. Once the presentations of the pilot and flight team have been made, we will begin to prepare the balloon, a task in which passengers can participate if they wish and we will take the opportunity to take the first images of our photographic report of the day. The pilot will advise when the balloon is ready and all the passengers will go up to the basket, our balloon has capacity for 8 passengers, so the attention is more personalized and familiar. If you want you can take your own photos and share them on social networks, everyone will envy you. The flight lasts approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes during which our ground crew follows us by road and we are in communication via radio. At the moment, the pilot will look for a suitable field to land, safe for the passage, accessible for the vehicle and without damaging fields planted by farmers, always respecting the environment. We will pick up the balloon and toast with cava to celebrate the adventure, a tradition that is celebrated after every balloon flight since 1783, when the first manned balloon flight was made. After the flight we will go to a restaurant in the area and enjoy a good breakfast of fork, we will comment the flight, anecdotes and we will see a slideshow of the photos and video taken during the morning that we will deliver to you on a USB stick. To finish the pilot will deliver a Flight Certificate to each passenger.
