Got to talking to the couple next to me at dinner
They are hot air balloon operators and the wife competes
The competition involves trying to throw things — beanbags with a 4ft streamer attached — to try and hit a target
They can only maneuver up and down and have to read the wind to figure out how to manipulate the balloon to hit given coordinates
Her balloon WONDER WOMAN pictured below
How cool is that — this never crossed my mind as a possibility in the range of hobbies one could have
