Take the scenic route and go on the ride of your life with these crazy birds in their hot-air balloons. First up are the kākā parrots - dad and the kids - sailing into the unknown, closely followed by the boy racer and his girlfriend. Dawdling behind are the flamingos who take the time to admire the late afternoon sun in this deep valley.
