PARAGLIDING.....

Tried to go paragliding today but the weather was not on my side. We left Cusco at 9 in the morning and drove to Chincheros for the take off site. We were just 2 people, me and Colin from Ireland. The pilot desided that Colin would go first, but we had to wait for a better conditions. So we sat down and waited and waited some more. At 11:45 Colin and Edgar took off and glided through the air. When they came back the wind had settled a little so we have to wait a little more for my turn. I dont know if it was a hint from my mum (she was not all too happy about me paragliding) or maybe it was Caroline it started to rain, and then it rained some more. Eventually it stopped raining and what happened then, you guessed right there was no more wind, how is that possible on a mountain? So no paragliding for me. I have looked at the weatherforecast for the next 2 days and well its going to rain so I will just have to try paragliding some other time.

Instead I am going to drive a ATV-motorbike tomorrow in the morning, For those of you who worry at least I will be on the ground;-)
