Hanging About

We took a morning drive to Tamborine Mountain, inland from the Gold Coast holiday strip.  By good luck we came to a park at the edge of the escarpment just as the paragliders were starting to do their thing. It was amazing to watch them - one moment they're on the grass, then they give their cords a flick, there's a "whoosh" as the breeze fills the chute and next thing they're a hundred metres up and climbing.
