Thank you all!
Clairelou: I suggest you to do it as soon as possible, because, after the flight, you will ask yourself all the time, why were you waiting for so long.
It is really great, full of adrenalin and I don`t know how to say in english, but I will try: chicken skin, if you know what I mean...

Some fantastic shot there Tullika, especially the blue paraglider against the blue sky 
But no force in heaven or earth would get me to go up in one of those

Really?? Why? Are you afraid of height? It is totally diferent filing from standing on the top od the high building and looking down.
Or you just can`t amagine, that those thin ropes can be safe.

I think I'm just a scardy cat really , it's the landing that I'm afraid of, accidents tend to happen to me that don't happen to normal people
