Philip learns to hang glide day 1
Easter has come and gone. Much has happened but for now I can tell you that Philip arrived on Saturday to learn to hang glide. Of course his timing could not have been worse - a large cold front moved in and put a stop to any ideas of flying. We did spend a lot of time in the class room and on the simulator of course. This seems to have paid off though - today, his very first day on the training slopes saw him do proper flights from about 15ft. Here in Wilderness Conditions are just so very good to learn to fly a hang glider - without a doubt one of the top places in the world.

Hello Johan!
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Easter--I hope yours was a joyous one. What beautiful pictures of Wilderness's beach! One of these years I will come back to South Africa and learn to fly (or failing that, go tandem!). I've enjoyed reading through your blog, so keep up the good work! Johanna D.
