I was hiding under your porch because I love you

Leave it to NatGeo.  They used 300 helium balloons and recreated the house in Disney's Up.  It worked and soared for an hour!

I found the one flaw in their design: they didn't account for the weight of a pudgy Wilderness Explorer, a talking dog and a cranky old man.  Next time.

(You've seen Up, right?  If not, you must.  It is so sweet.)

Happy Weekend!

    I've seen this! It's so amazing, isn't it? I absolutely adore all of the colours of the balloons, and the cheery yellow colour of the house!

    They must have unleashed all their wilderness explorer training in order to do that! I heart that movie. In fact I may go try to rent/buy it right now.

    Can you believe I still have not seen this movie? Was supposed to see it with an ex...so I feel like it's tainted somehow, haha.
