Pie in the Sky

PIE IN THE SKY

Since 2011 we have run a balloon operation in Mexico at the Teotihuacan pyramids and receive people from all over the world who visit this magical place where we are able to fly all year-round. For many it is a dream or illusion that people probably think they will never realise - hence the title

Chocolate-coated raisins, And fresh marshmallow pie Cookies, tea and coffee Some tacos for the eye For those who’re feeling nervous Tequila’s standing-by

As day breaks on the mountain To warm and bring its light On getting to the launch field Check with the weather site We hope there won’t be rain, The ground stays nice and dry

The winds receive us softly, The balloons ascend and fly Rise up into the heavens To drift up there on high A gentle breeze on landing Settling in a field nearby

‘A toast! a toast! To celebrate’ We hear the pilot cry Making everybody happy And glad to be alive After standing in a basket Under flames up in the sky!
