Sailplaning...

One of the first times "W" and I came to Napa was in 1996! Wow. That was 20 years ago.  At that time we decided we would go Sailplaning.
What is it? It's where a plane takes you up in a glider to about 4,000 ft and lets you go.
It is truly an amazing experience, and if you have the stomach for it, DO IT.
 So, after our first experience, they moved the location.  We were sad.
But this trip "W" found another place that does this amazing adventure!
And we could not wait to do this again.

So, here are the pics.
(and the pilot gave us a few exhilarating moves, like I think we went upside down or something)


We were pretty crammed in there.




We were about to release and be on our own.....




You get pretty darn close to those mountains


In the distance you could see the Pacific Ocean





this was when we were doing a loop de loop (I think)

yes, pretty sure, or a dive straight down....

that right there is a hiking trail...oh my


and we made it!

Safe and sound!!!
Have a great day y'all!
