I have just returned from a weeks cross country paragliding in France. We flew from a number of different sites in the French Alps from Annecy to Nice, flying at legendary sites including Laragne and St Andre.

The weather was not ideal for long cross country flights with low cloudbase and prolonged stable conditions, but I flew two immensely memorable paragliding flights over the high mountains, flying with vultures, sailplanes, and a fantastic group of friends.
