Flying with Google
I know I posted earlier claiming that I was going to fly. I did! See how high I flew!
The weather has been crap these past few days. Not really good news for the Google dekiru team. I hope the sun decides to come play too. Look at all the happy faces last Sunday!
I really wanted one of those Google safety helmets. They took my bag when strapping me up… didn’t have anywhere to swipe one in. ^^.
The crowd seems to be pretty happy.
“Mommy, I want a balloon!”
“Freedom here I come!”
“Quit touching me!” ^^.
Even Sunday’s limit was 70kg, girls have a higher tendency to float in the air. Guys just went up and slowly drifted down. As one Woody said, “That’s falling… with style”. ^^.
I was pretty surprised because the people who participated were mostly couples (at least when I went). And when she went up, he took pictures; when he went up, she took pictures. Now isn’t that nice.
I got my flying photos taken by Shingo and Yuko. Here’s my 2-shot with Yuko. She’s cool.
As I looked at my 2-shot with Yuko, I realised I forgot to take a pic with Shingo! ><. Next time I won't forget. But I did manage to get lots of pictures of his mountain bike. In between flying people, the dekiru team had some fun and hung his bicycle up.
The finished product seems rather artistic don’t you think? I’m kinda lacking in the art department, but it somehow feels that way. The bicycle was pretty light. No problems floating in the air.
All balloons are created equal.
Some just lose air quicker than others. Otsukaresama individual balloon.
I wanted to take a shot from high up. Didn’t get very far. The only place I discovered was neighboring Tower Records. This was taken from the front. I think there were fire escape stairs round back. But I didn’t know how to get round to them. Balloons look rather small from high up don’t they?
Love this guy’s t-shirt. I wonder if it says “Me” on the front. ^^
If you do manage to get yourself to visit them, don’t forget to get those keitai strap cleaners that they are giving out for free… with a condition. ^^. You have to use your keitai and lookup the keyword of the day, so don’t forget to bring it with you. Easy as pie and some lemon tea. T-shirt’s only for those who queued up to fly. ^^

So you did it !
I didn’t try when I saw them last time. I think I would be too frustrated to don’t fly really high. ^^
