This have been a most extraordinary day. It started with us trying a competition
bobsleigh in the Olympic run. The real thing. You sit in something like looks like a crossbreed between a torpedo and a space ship. In the front a professional driver, then me and Bonen in the middle and in the back a guy that does the breaking. Then off you go, down an ice-clad track. Pretty quickly the speed was so high that the G-forces banged our heads into the side of the bob - good thing we were wearing helmets. We reached a top speed of around 120 kilometers per hour and something like 3,5 G. In a sled! Very very cool.
Then we took the ski lift up to the top of
Patscherkofel, at 2250 meter above sea level. The wind was weak and the sun was shining - time to unpack the paragliders! We had two beautiful flights down to a landing place 1400 meters lower down in the valley. Wonderful!
Now we are about to sit down to a hopefully great meal in a good restaurant.
