BUT!
I SURVIVED, and it was worth it.
First off, let me say I'm going to try and be brief and do a few smaller posts about all this so it's not chaos and over whelming.
Story 1. Paragliding at point of the mountain in draper. Remember when we thought it would be AWESOME to jump off of a mountain?!?? Well, it was. I was kind of freaking out at first, but once we took off, which was super smooth by the way, then it was no big deal. I thought I would get sick, or nervous but I was calm cool and collected. Epic! Photos to follow.
Hanging out waiting for the wind to pick up. There were like 50 other people going at the same time as us, so people were taking off and landing all around us! It was so cool. Especially to look up and see that many people in the air at once!
They are tiny in this photo below, but there are a bunch of them. Even more took off after this photo. It was awesome!
My mother in law did it with us, I was so proud of her! She was so brave, I was shocked when she said she wanted to go with us, but I'm so glad she did! She loved it and wants to go again! Goooo Louise!
Here's David getting ready to go! His brother Adam also went with us! We all went tandem of course. Which means we were attached to someone who knows what they are doing!
In my brain I thought, oh we will probably start off small since this is our first time.. Will jump off the mountain and just kind of float down to the ground below....Oh no! You jump off and they go higher and higher and higher! If the wind is good they want you to be up above the mountain! So crazy, so fun!
My landing was smooth as butter, we just lightly glided right down and landed on our feet. Have you ever had a dream about being able to fly??? I have, and this allowed all my childhood dreams to become a reality!!
If you ever get the opportunity to go para gliding, GO!!! It's seriously so fun. Beautiful views, amazing night. Love love love. I want to go again, who's going with me?!?!
BUH bye!
