Touring Balloons

Today I did a small tour with 2 people around the sims and dropped people at their vairous destinations. I tried to use the Linden balloon in the Ahern welcome area but it didn't work. The startup command of the balloon didn't enable the physics. Ballooning, as I am quickly discovering with my fine Hank Ramos Balloon, is a great way to meet new people. Do any of you like balloon tours? Post your thoughts in the comments.
