Paragliding Sunday

Near perfect weather for paragliding as the first flyer sets off on his short take off run this morning.

He is soon airborne and headed for Bad Wildbad in the Enz valley some 300m below.

Up, up and away he glides smoothly over the trees hoping for some thermals to keep him climbing.

It's a long way down and this time he's unlucky as he descends slowly into the valley and soon the flight is over.

His partner follows a few moments later and is equally unlucky with the thermals. The patch of green seen on the opposite side of the valley is another take-off area for hand and paragliders.
