Floating Lanterns

Elder and Sister Anderson took us to the see the floating lanterns in Pingxi. We wanted a red one for Valentines Day to send our Grandchildren a Valentine floating in the sky. We painted love messages and their initials before we sent in the air. 
Next the helper lite a fire under the lantern, and soon it heated up; we held on to it until it got hot and started to ascend into the sky.


It was a fun new adventure. Wish we could do this at home, but we are sure it would not meet fire safety standards.
We enjoyed being with the Anderson, and will always remember the fun day we spent with them.  They returned to their home in Logan, Utah one month after these pictures were taken on March 13, 2013.
