Once we are safely off the cliff and paragliding above some breathtaking views, I attempt to “turn on the like switch” by asking interesting questions.
“I’d love to hear about the best paragliding experience you’ve ever had”, I say, breaking the silence.
Brandon talks about Mexico, thermo winds, and about being 16,000 feet high.
I build on this which leads to his interest in skydiving and his irrational fear of the plane and not the jumping part. We talk about windsurfing, my husband’s passion, and Brandon shares that he “made a fool” of himself while attempting the sport several summers ago. I laugh as he recounts the details.
We glide over some beautiful homes and Brandon points out Alicia Keys new home (20 million dollars and absolutely gorgeous!).
