cycling (Annecy) 1:00:00 [3] 20.0 km (3:00 / km)
Early uphill ride to Sur-le-Bois and a bit beyond past the weather station. Beautiful morning again, spectacular panoramic view from the village down to the valley. Slow up, fast down. Then Wee, E , Leanimal and I went to a very cool water park outside of town. It was an impressive compound of several pools including one with a lot of bubbles, a current pool that carried us along, and several slides of varying lengths, pitches some windy some straight. It was kid-heaven! And pretty good for adults too:)
And then... the family took me out for a "surprise" this evening. I was sent running off the edge of a cliff called Planfait , attached to a complete stranger with a parapente on his back. The wind caught the thin sheet of nylon attached by thin strings and lifted us up then we gently floated for while, while I hooted and said "wow!" over and over. I got to "steer" for a while and then my guide said we'd do some acrobatics and we spun wildly for a few seconds until I said I thought I might throw up. We caught a gust and flew a bit longer before slowly drifting downward to land in a field right where the car was. All just ahead of a thunderstorm that rumbled behind us. Amazing!
