We woke up early ish, showered and headed to the hotel cafe for some breakfast. I had a Masala omelette and chai which were both delish! We asked about checking out and also trekking and paragliding and were told that for £32.50 each we could trek to a waterfall and go paragliding before getting our bus home. Initially Eilidh and I were hesitant as we'd planned yoga rather than paragliding! But we agreed to do it.
We checked out and set off. Sadly there was too much traffic for us to make it to the waterfall so we started the 2 hour journey to where the paragliding took place. It was crazy driving up and around mountains. We arrived and as the weather wasn't great were told to wait and that we may not be able to do it, disappointed we got some lunch. We were on a limited time scale so I suggested that we do the 45 minute Jeep ride up the mountain and then wait for the weather there, as if it suddenly got nice when we were at the bottom we would't have time to get up. It was pretty scary as the road was narrow and passing other cars was terrifying!
Paragliding is much more calm than skydiving or anything like that, you go gently and slowly and you're sat down with an instructor behind you. It took a little run up off the mountain edge but we all got to do it and the views were incredible!!!
Once we'd finished we drove back into town via a monastery which was cool to see. There was a bit of confusion but we boarded the night bus at 7 ish and began our journey home, including a toilet stop at a fancy hotel which turned out to have run out of running water- very unpleasant. But all in all a great day, never would have guessed I would paraglide down the Himalayas!
