One day while surfing the net, I get an email from a friend with pictures and a short description of this magnificent dining experience. I thought, this is so photoshopped so I Googled it and came across www.dinnerinthesky.com This has to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile. Maybe I’m behind on the times here; this is simply amazing! I think I’d have to have a glass of wine or three while up there but wow, what an experience that would be.
A gorgeous view, something that very few people have experienced and fine dining. Whatever guy takes his woman on a date here is most likely getting laid. The table holds roughly 22 guests and 5 staff. The crane will usually carry you a maximum of 50 meters (164 feet) up in the air not to mention your seat has a 180° rotation. If you notice in some of the below pictures, there is even a separate platform available for a piano and other instruments. And while this seems to be an extremely marketable idea, it seems very simple. A crane, table, food, booze and people. You couldn’t ask for a better time. Just pray the crane operator isn’t on drugs or just having a bad day!

For as long as I can remember, he was the voice of my team. The guy that announced, “Braves win, Braves win, Braves win!” as they went on to dominate 14 consecutive division titles, played in the World Series 5 times during the 90’s and took the title in 95. Sadly, Skip Carey passed away in his home on Sunday night; in his sleep. He will be missed and my thoughts are with his family. Thanks for the memories and it sure was a good run!
