Flying high in Medellin

Having spent around 35 hours travelling on 5 different aircrafts across the atlantic and down the east coast of America I was pretty happy to be in Medellin, Colombia!  Wasting no time, we booked onto some parapenting over the City. The cost was around 80,000 COP ($40 USD) for 20 minutes, this was ample amount of time to take in the vast amount of landscape around you and for your instructor to do some tricks.

Getting to the parapenting site is another small cost, if you are staying in Medellin you can normally get a taxi up there and back for around 30,000 COP per hour (getting the taxi driver to stay is a good idea, there might not be as many taxis up at the site). 

 My pictures really don´t do this area justice, it was spectacular.
