I knew a couple who had a very unique wedding experience by having an informal but fun wedding up in the air with just their best friends and a minister as their witness they said their vows in a Sedona hot air balloon ride. It is their life long dream to have their wedding up their and both of them love the outdoors and scenic spots which is why they chose to have their memorable day up in the air. That day, love is in the air, literally.

I always want to experience riding in one of Sedona balloon rides. I’ve been hearing raves about it from my cousins and now my friends got married on it. Their raves made me curious so I paid their site a visit and I read great testimonials from their clients plus the photos are just overwhelming, you can see how picturesque the views you are able to see while you are up there, it will be great to bring my DSLR taking great photos of God’s creation while I’m on a Sedona hot air balloon ride.

Experiencing the sunrise or the sunset above is definitely something I want to experience with my husband who also loves nature tripping. They even have the Splash n’ Dash where the balloon descends for a few minutes on water for a cool ride. They also have the low contour flying if you want to see native wildlife, just make your cameras ready all the time and have it on high shutter to capture great wildlife in action. After the ride you even get a first flight certificate to remember the amazing experience.

I have always loved watching Italian movies and I am like one of the millions who love Italian food. I can eat pasta and pizza every single day for a month and never get tired of it!

I would like to be able to visit Italy one day. And since I would like to know more about their culture and how they eat and drink and explore the historical sites the country has to offer, I am leaning towards taking a guided tour.

I get to see and discover Sicily, the crossroads of civilizations and Pompei and Mount Vesuvius.

Ever wondered what is the most popular or in demand autographed sports memorabilia? Of course that would be a hard question to answer given we have so many great and legendary players in different professional sports – basketball, football, tennis, golf, and the list goes on.

But if we will limit it to one sport, like baseball, perhaps we can find which signed autographed baseballs by a specific player is more in demand.  So far the most popular autograph in sports history is a Babe Ruth signed item. The famous “Babe” signed a lot of autographs in his career. It can even be said that Ruth started the sports autograph craze because he rarely turned anyone down. The autographed memorabilia of the New York Yankees are also popular. The Yanks have a huge fan base in baseball, like how the LA Lakers are today in basketball. Of course, Michael Jordan autographed sports memorabilia is the ‘holy grail’ for modern day basketball collectors. Like Jordan, Wayne Gretzky autographs are a magnet for collectors in the field of hockey. Considered the greatest hockey player ever, Gretzky’s signature is a must for hockey fans. Among football fans, it’s hard to beat the popularity of Joe Montana or Walter Payton autographs. They’re among the most popular players in NFL history.

Of course, when buying any sports memorabilia, especially if it’s a signed item, you need to make sure it is the authentic kind. There are many fake items (and more so signatures!) in the market so be careful!
