On Sunday, May 27th, the Zeus Explorers will be taking to the sky – in our hot air balloons! As always we will meet at 7AM SLT in front of Zeus. You do not need to own a hot air balloon to join us – our intrepid pilots (Tomais, Michelangelo, Esme, and Dru) can each carry 3 passengers in their balloons.
From there we will go to the sim of Land’s End to get the balloons unpacked and prepared for takeoff! Located in the scenic New England estate, Land’s End is a barren, windswept beach – and a favorite spot for seaplanes and balloons to land and take off.
From Land’s End, we’ll head southwest across the southern New England and Hollywood estates until we reach the Blake Sea. From there will we turn west until we pass that great landmark of the Blake Sea, Crows Nest Lighthouse. The final leg of our journey will be to turn south, and land our balloons at SL Prague Aviation Airport, on the western edge of Satori continent.

If you are interested in SL ballooning, I highly recommend the Terra-Kojima Cirrus balloon by Cubey Terra and Reitsuki Kojima. The balloon is easy to fly and worth every L$.
I would also like to recommend the e-books of my friend Dahlia Jayaram, who has made it her goal to fly all 9 SL continents in her hot air balloon. You can find her most recent e-book here. It is free to read.
