We left Skyline with a sense of excitement. A feeling of leaving the nest and heading off on our own adventure. We headed towards Griefenburg - a decision that was made only 1/2 hour before we left. Previously we thought we were going to head west towards Innsbruck and then Switzerland. Sure, we didn't the know the place as well as Olli and Carol but sometimes it is half the fun finding little nooks and crannies by just running over them.

On Wednesday, the day was still looking pretty dodgy for flying so we headed off to some waterfalls we saw in a brochure where we are staying. As we were driving, we saw a castle on hill in the distance, and since we didn't have any real sense of urgency, we quickly turned left and went to search on how to get up there. We didn't make it that close to the castle but sometimes what you find is sometimes better than what you were searching for. We found some overly friendlly cows and horses.

Only used to friendly farmers, these cows and horses loved people. They wanted to lick you, touch you, even give you a bit of kiss. They were quite special. They all wanted some contact but weren't pushy.

We made it to the canyon of waterfalls in the next valley after closing but that just meant we got in for free. It's still light here till 9:30pm. It was worth the 6 Euros to enter even though we didn't pay.

We also came across the deaded Griefen that hearld's from Griefenburg.

So it was more of a touristy day than a flying day but that's life. Sometimes hang gliding just takes you to the places that are special to spend time.
