横浜の自宅から気球体験をするなら、夜中に車を使うか、宿泊施設を取らないとダメなんだなぁ(そして、集合場所へ朝早くタクシーでも使って行かないと)ってあちこちネットを彷徨いていたら見つけた宿泊施設付きのここ! オーナーの今村さん(今回パイロットもしてくれた)作ってくれて有難う!気球体験だけなら他にも出来るところはあるとは思いますが、ここは、ここにしかないアドバンテージがあるところです。 やっぱり行けば良かったかも、私も今度行こうかなぁ(誘ったら、断った友達。)、と友達も言ってました。 天気も良く、高度も高く飛べ、得難い体験をしました。 本当に感謝です! 皆様にもオススメします。(グループで行って、テント泊することも出来ます。お盆・年末年始以外の通年使えるフライトチケットなら、シーズン料金時も使えるのでお得。ギフトにしてもいいかも。)
