Fun activities featured at the expo include paraglide performances, remote control flying demo, hot air balloon ride, live band performances, bouncing castle and mascot appearances.

I went to the site this morning but did not see any hot air balloon. My main intention of going was to take photos of the hot air balloon and the paraglide performances. I believe this is the first time that hot air balloon has been brought to Miri.  I immediately called Alice Ting, Naim’s sales manager for Miri. Alice was my classmate in Upper 6 at Kolej Tun Datu Tuanku Haji Bujang.

Alice told that the hot air balloon ride would only start at about 5pm. I headed home to rest.

At about 5pm, I was feeling so sleepy that I almost did not want to go to see the hot air balloon. I had to force myself to go, telling myself this was an opportunity too good to miss.

I am so glad that I went. I managed to take quite a lot of photos of the paraglide performances, the hot air balloon and also the live band performance.

By the time I got home, it was about 6.30pm, just in time for dinner cooked by my wife.  Life is great!
