Yet Another Brel Attempt to Get Injured, Maimed or Die

 Up, up and away…

We find ourselves in La Cumbre, a posh town in the northern part of the province of Cordoba, about 800 km from Buenos Aires. Known as a groovy, artsy town, La Cumbre is world-famous for one thing – paragliding. In fact, they recently hosted the paragliding World Championships.

Still high from our hang gliding experiences in Rio, we confidently donned our paragliding gear and ran off the 330+ metre cliff. Sailing high above the ground, we saw the world (and valleys and rivers) as only the birds do.

Note to Mel’s parents: Mel is actually doing this voluntarily, I swear. I promise I am taking good care of her and will return her intact. -Brendan
