This is my boyfriend, Lenny, getting ready to the take-off :)
The view!
Yes I did it! My boyfriend is a paragliding pilot and his friend Renato who does tandem flights, asked me if I wanted to fly, and of course I said yes! It was absolutely amazing! It's funny, at first I felt like I was watching a movie rather than really flying, maybe because I was really anxious, but calm in a way, because the weather was perfect, and I was really comfortable in the chair, like I was seated in a couch, but them, when he asked me if I wanted to take the control handles of the wing, it felt real! The take-off was at Rochão, at 750m of altittude!
The quality of these pictures is entirely my fault, I forgot to take off the camera card from my computer, (not an unusual thing to happen to someone like me) so we had to take the pictures with another camera :)
LOVE sent me this beautiful dress, it's perfect for these festive days!
When I first saw these gloves they immediately caught my attention, and why I didn't buy them? I have no idea! And then (as it happens with everything that i like but don't buy) they disappeared, even from the site, so I lost all hope. But Sónia found them gave me as a Christmas present! :)
As you can see it's warm and sunny around here, not really the kind of weather to wear gloves, but I couldn't wait!
I love this Island, I'm still here and yet I'm thinking when I'll be coming back.
