Now the second person to successfully circle the globe by balloon, Ashley Nickels, seems to be setting a new record with a second lap. Nickels began her historic trip at Disneyland theme Park in California while celebrating her third birthday. Members of her family expressed their surprise in her efforts as she informed no one of her plans.
"This is by far the most outstanding thing she has ever done" explained her Mother, "This surely out weighs any efforts in potty training."
No communication has yet been made with Ashley since her launch. It is assumed that she is hungry, thirsty and poopy. The last items she was known to eat where a chocolate covered banana and a fritter.
Norse Blum, an employee of Disneyland and the actor who plays Dale the Chipmunk, was the last person to talk with Ashley before she began her crusade. "She asked me for the balloons for an aerial, or maybe she meant the mermaid. Damn, you try to understand toddlers in this mask."
