The next day, early in the morning.
The alarm clock just rang at six o'clock, and the little kid jumped up.
As early as last night before going to bed, Zhou Yu told her that they would go to the Volcano Park early this morning to experience hot air ballooning.
The little boy is very interested in balloons that can take people flying into the sky.
The reason why we have to get up so early is that the flight of hot air balloons is greatly affected by the weather.
Not only do we not fly on windy or rainy days, even on sunny days, we usually only take off before 10:30 in the morning when the wind is light.
Because as noon approaches, the wind direction and wind speed will change.
Taking off at this time would be very dangerous.
Although Zhou Yu and Xiaonaituanzi both have the ability to travel through time, even if they encounter danger, it will not be a big problem.
But riding a hot air balloon is just for experience and fun, there is no need to reveal the secret.
After quickly washing up and having breakfast nearby, they took a taxi and headed straight to the scenic spot.
When we arrived at the gate of the scenic area, many tourists were already waiting there.
Seeing this, the little princesses couldn't help but look forward to it even more.
It was eight o'clock and the scenic area had just opened, so Zhou Yu rushed in with the little princesses.
When they arrived at the scenic area, they went straight to the hot air balloon ticket office at the foot of Dakong Mountain without any hesitation.
The hot air balloon ticket office is on the right side of the main road.
Since Zhou Yu was traveling with several little princesses, even though they did not stop on the way, when they arrived here, there were already more than a dozen tourists queuing in front of them.
Adult tickets cost two hundred and eighty, and children's tickets cost two hundred.
Zhou Yu bought two adult tickets and two children's tickets, and then excitedly came to the waiting area.
Only at this moment did everyone's nervous mood gradually calm down.
As the staff lit the fire, the hot air balloon that was originally spread on the ground gradually inflated.
Seeing this, the little kid stretched his neck with curiosity.
"Little guy, aren't we going to go up in a balloon? Why do they have to light a fire in there?"
"We're going to ride a hot air balloon, which is different from the usual inflatable balloons~"
Zhou Yu explained with a smile while adjusting the little girl's scarf.
Li Lizhi, upon hearing his answer, couldn't help but become even more curious. "Since they're all balloons, the inflatable ones are much safer than these fire-breathing ones, right?"
In fact, it was not just Li Lizhi, but other tourists around her also had similar doubts.
This question naturally did not pose any difficulty for Zhou Yu, who had checked the strategy guide in advance.
Seeing that the little princesses were all looking at him with confusion, he immediately smiled and said, "The reason why balloons can fly is mainly because they are filled with gas that is lighter than air.
However, gases that are lighter than air are generally flammable and pose great safety risks when used.
In addition, the air density on the ground and in the air at high altitudes is also different.
When a balloon reaches a certain height, the gas inside will expand due to changes in pressure.
If the balloon is popped, it will explode.
Even if they don't burst, inflatable balloons are more difficult to control their ascent and descent than hot air balloons.
It is precisely for these reasons that inflatable balloons are rarely used in manned hot air balloons."
Zhou Yu explained in great detail, and not only the little princesses, but also the tourists around were all listening with great interest.
Even the security personnel who gave him instructions gave him a thumbs up.
Seeing everyone's reaction, the little princesses all looked at Zhou Yu with admiration.
In response, Zhou Yu could only smile awkwardly.
In fact, he just learned these things as he went along.
He really can't explain anything more profound.
Before takeoff, staff members explained various precautions.
Although everyone knows that if a problem really occurs, it is difficult for people in the air to take any effective measures.
However, everyone still listened very carefully to such details concerning safety.
Even Zhou Yu and the little princesses were not arrogant at all.
Time travel is the last-minute guarantee, but it is a matter of life and death, so it is better not to use it if possible.
Moreover, since the scenic area has developed a hot air balloon sightseeing project, it must be safe.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, the hot air balloons were blown up one after another.
According to the order in which they bought their tickets, everyone quickly boarded the hot air balloon.
After taking protective measures as required, the pilots and ground personnel began to increase the amount of fire.
Then the hot air balloon slowly took off.
I thought the little princesses would be scared, but who knew they were even more excited than me.
As the hot air balloon flew higher and higher, the scenery became more and more beautiful.
The most dazzling of them is the sun that has just risen.
The warm sunshine shines on the hot air balloon and everyone's faces, making everyone's mood even better.
"Wow~ Xiao Nianjun, why is there smoke coming out of there?"
Just when Zhou Yu was about to take out his camera to take a picture, the little kid suddenly pointed excitedly into the distance.
Looking in the direction she pointed, there was indeed fog rising from the ground.
Zhou Yu originally thought that it was just a fog in the morning, but before he could explain, the pilot explained that it was a hot spring.
The rising mist is emitted by the hot springs.
Not only that, the pilot also took the opportunity to start explaining the scenic spots below.
The first thing to explain is naturally the nearby Xiaokongshan volcano.
Looking down at Xiaokong Mountain from a hot air balloon, it looks like a big bowl has been dug out on the top of the mountain.
