I was standing there at the gorgeous green meadows of Vagamon watching colourful birds carrying people. Now don't get scared folks😉, we are not in any dinosaur movie where Pterosaurs (yes the flying dinosaur one) carrying a human. It was the Paragliders in their Parafoil (fancy word yeah?? Its what the parachute used for paragliding is called... ofcourse i googled it😁) I was waiting impatiently for my turn to fly. It was a beautiful weekend so it was filled with many adventurers who wants to experience flying 😍. Finally my turn came, once i got strapped to the gliding seat along with my paraglider (which we had a good laugh as the volunteers who helped me were so jovial and fun), we both ran towards the end off the cliff li!!!! The land below is so far down the cliff, the parachute opened to its glory in sky, my paraglider operated it very smoothly and in an expert way. I was supposed to be scared but instead i was enjoying the flight, i was feeling the air on my face, my body was so light...i was feets above!!!!!!😱 It was so peaceful in the air, all people, trees, buildings became so tiny . The feel was heavenly, wished it lasted for a very long time. My paraglider sailed the parachute so gracefully in the air he took me from one end of the cliff to the other, i was enjoying to the fullest. Maybe for very few seconds i felt my otherwise very dormant soul to be excited again. It was so peaceful, the winds rustling on my face, like a bird so above watching our beautiful land below, people waving at you, the endless sky so near. The flight lasted for the best 15 minutes🤍 before my glider landed us on the cliff safely. I am sure i will fly again someday again !!! ☺️
