Hot Air Ballooning:

On the 19th of September 1783 Pilatre De Rozier, a scientist, launched the first hot air balloon called ‘Aerostat Reveillon’. The passengers were a sheep, a duck and a rooster and the balloon stayed in the air for a grand total of 15 minutes before crashing back to the ground.                            hot air balloon

The first manned attempt came about 2 months later on 21st November, with a balloon made by 2 French brothers, Joseph and Etienne Montgolfier. The balloon was launched from the center of Paris and flew for a period of 20 minutes. The birth of hot air ballooning!!! This is according to the history of ballooning:

Make a list of all the reasons you would or would not want to be aloft in a hot air balloon.

If this doesn’t seem like the thing that will fill you with hot aired joy, reflect on the fact that June 4 was Hug Your Cat Day. You missed it, but it’s not too late. Don’t hesitate, Grab that cat, and smother him/her in an all inclusive hug.

Of course June 6 is D-Day. It’s also Doughnut Day when you can get free doughnuts at Krispy Kreme. Free Doughnut link Remember that every day is the celebration you make it.
