"Adventure is out there!"

I'm a sucker for Pixar movies. Yes, the "kids'" ones. My favorite of them all?

UP.

 

Now, why am I blogging about an animated film that came out a few years ago?

Because I saw in the news today a story about a guy who is attempting to cross the Atlantic in true UP-fashion. That is... via helium balloons. He is starting his journey in Maine and estimates his voyage will take him about 6 or 7 days. 

You can read the NYPost article here.

As crazy as this stunt may be, I think it's pretty awesome. Here's a guy trying to make what seems "impossible," possible. He's trying something in a fun, new way (and probably hoping to God he either is successful or is at least able to safely land somewhere).

Although I don't think I would try this, it's inspirational to see the risk being taken.

Like Carl and Ellie say, "Adventure is out there!" 

 You just have to be willing to take the leap, and be optimistic towards what could happen.
