The funicular

Hello again.

Today we cycled to a funicular that goes up a mountain. We got on the funicular and I found myself quite scared because it was very steep. When we got to the top the view was really nice. We then found out we could watch people paragliding off the mountain. Here are 2 pictures...
... and here is a video!


It was fascinating watching them run off the edge but also very scary when one or two did not take off propperly and had to pull there parachute down. Nobody was hurt though!

May have time to write about tomorrow tomorrow but me and Dad are going to a football maatch and might be back late. Neve :)

  2. Hello again Neve - many thanks for this one plus photos and a video - what a talented grandaughter we have! I think I might like to try that paragliding - can you imagine the screams as I take off, or not as the case may be!! I can't believe how many different things you've tried and seen - I think you should write a book as well as Mum! Hope you enjoy the football match with Dad tomorrow and Mum and Euan have a good time too doing whatever they decide to do. Look forward to the next posting whenever you have time. Lots of love N & G xx
