learn to hang glide
Been wanting 23 months ago

to do this for SO many years now. Definitely something I have to do before I die.

Will 43 Things still be around then…assuming I still have a few decades left?

Geez

you make it sound like you’re going to wait till you’re in your 70’s to do this. I hope that’s not the plan! :)

LOL

I’d prefer it to happen sooner rather than later. :)

Handgliding

looks like so much fun. I have always loved watching them…..about the closest you can get to floating on the breeze like the birds do I imagine. i am with you here…. on the ‘some day’ list!

so often it's about watching...

I want to do it. Not simply watch. I love doing the exciting things, the exhilarating things. Always have. Always will. It’s just a matter of time and money…

But

this is so inspiring to watch that it makes you want to do. Some things you watch and think it’s great but that is the extent of it…...hand gliding is the one that I always end up wishing I was there.

sometimes it's fine

to watch – like XGames sports, which I’d never have the guts to do anyway. But typical adrenaline sports like hang gliding are just so appealing.

Have you ever bungee jumped? I have once. I stood from a tower and fell backwards – A LOT of fun!!!

Haven't done any

to be honest hand gliding is the only one that has any appeal. I have a fear of heights and there is no way anyone would ever get me to bungee…...... would happily go watch others do it though.

h.g. ~happiness is preparing for Nepal~

I know this sounds crazy, but I am going to para-glide next time I go to Nepal ~

I decided I wanted to while sitting and watching people doing it…..

Is it similar to hang gliding?? or the same

I’m a little nervous, but something inside me said, “YES… go for it” ~

:-D

OH!!!!!

not crazy at all – just wide-eyed exciting!!!

paragliding can be done from a low elevation surface or from the water, rather than from a high elevation surface like a mountain.

Do it, do it, do it! I’m excited for you, but jealous at the same time. :)

h.g. ~happiness is preparing for Nepal~

I'm going to "do it"!

I will get pictures ~
and I am really excited….
I do not “normally” do these types of
things….
so, it’s really a stretch for me….

:)

h.g.

is living on the wild side…

Good for you!

:) Let's see how it goes!
