3 Summer Adventures For Couples

Although I don’t usually start a post with negative comments, I must admit that I found the entire booking process frustrating. However, Virgin Balloon Flights did everything they could to make it as easy as possible. The places they flew to were very restricted and on all dates that we had available, they were either full booked or Hubby was at work. Staff advised us to log in as soon as possible to ensure that we were able to get on the flights as soon as they are released. In our case, it was Wednesday at 5pm.This system allowed me to book our flight and was a great success. The flight attendant told us to call them to confirm that the flight would go ahead. They need to verify that the weather is favourable before they can book the flight. Unfortunately, I booked our flights when the weather was terrible and it was cancelled seven times.I hated calling the flight line because I was constantly checking weather forecasts every time we booked. I knew the answer before I heard it, but 99 weeks and one day later, my gift of a flight meant that we were all set!

Although we arrived very early without any sign of a crew nor a balloon, we were assured that our place was safe as other passengers began to arrive. Although I was certain that the balloon was ready for us, we were unable to climb it so we had to help it unpack and get in the air.

Whether you are anxiously waiting for a long weekend , or have the Friday flu (wink), make sure you make the most of your new freedom! Is there anything better than relaxing in the great outdoors, surrounded with delicious food, drink, and wonderful company? ... No? ..

The summer weather is here, while many will be heading to a crowded beach, why don’t you plan something special with your significant other? Here are some tips for picnic planning.

Location is king: While you can picnic practically anywhere, your choice sets the tone for everything from packing to entertainment. Will you be hiking to a picturesque spot or dining in the park? V different assembly required. Look around your area for beautiful secluded spaces. There are so many possibilities. Look for parks, botanic gardens, river banks, hikes or a quite seaside location.

Picnic Essential Gear: While your exact needs may differ, there are some essential items that we recommend including in your picnic kit.

– No. 1. A chic basket. Can you say Instagram opp? One of the most popular types of wicker baskets is the one that’s stylish and chic.

A picnic’s atmosphere is affected by the blanket you choose. Comfort is important, so choose a blanket that has a soft texture and a beautiful design. Our blankets are the best.

It’s essential to have a cooler bag and bottle tote for picnics. A light menu that includes seasonal fruits and vegetables, as well as a variety of cheeses, is best for those who plan to lounge for several hours.

Entertainment: Having entertainment other than food and drinks is always a good idea.

You can always make your picnic a success with a few extra touches. Bring a portable speaker such as Sunnylife Beach Sound to blast your favorite songs.

Outdoor games are great for picnicking with children and adults. Entertainment depends on where you are picnicking, but classics such as ring-toss or a deck of cards can’t be beat.
