Soar the skies, sail with Oscar the balloonist

CEBU, Philippines - At just eight years old, Oscar the Inquisitive Explorer has seen almost the entire world! From Poland to the Antarctic to the Nile in Africa, Oscar the balloonist is on a journey of discovery which takes him and his trusty companion, Spike the Cactus, on exciting adventures in his one-of-a-kind hot air balloon.

Unlike ordinary hot air balloons that merely carry humans in a wicker basket, Oscar's is fully equipped with gadgets and contraptions to help him live and travel around.
