Hot Air Ballooning?

Have any of you gone hot air ballooning? I looked into it and it would cost about $400 for 2 people. The balloon adventure is about 4-5 hours. My DH has no desire to go so I told my 6-year old that "if" I go, he's going. We're saving our change and if by dumb luck we save $400, I'd like to go in the fall.

Any stories to share?
 
I think it really depends upon where you go. We did a hot air balloon ride in Napa Valley and it was awesome. Rolling vineyards as far as the eye could see. It was beautiful. If there were nothing to look at except, say, rows of houses, it might be a bit dull though. Where will you go?
 
We didn't go on a ride, but went on a lift. We went up in the ballon and hovered above ground for about 5 minutes at a local fair. Anyhow, I didn't like it because the height thing made me feel almost like vertigo. The view was pretty. Sorry if this isn't helpful. Melissa
