Going on the Glider!!!!

Sunday: Today I woke up and got ready for church, then Quinn came and picked me up it was so nice to see them again. Kali told me all sorts of fun stories about Italy that i'm sure she will tell you about later. This was both of our last week in the ward. So we said bye to everyone we had met. After church we went back to our houses and changed and then we left to go glideling. Katharina helped us find Valentin's dad and then she left with Anna and Laura to go to a lake. We then went over and we waited for the plane to land so that we could go. Kali went first, she was a little nervous because she is a bit afraid of hightes. So she went up, While she was up I talked to a few of the other people. I talked to this one boy, I don't remember his name, but he was very nice. When Kali came back she didn't look so good. She said she felt sick while she was in the air but that she had tons of fun. She said they did a few tricks in the air and went upside down. Next it was my turn, So I strapped on the parashoot ( I have to say its kinda weird to think that the whole reason you have it on is just in case something goes wrong) So as you go up it is so cool, there is a cable that is attatched to the plane and It carries the plane up like a kite, then as soon as you are in the air and flying good then the cable releases. I didn't have the best luck while in the air. We were trying to find a pocket of air or something but we just had bad timeing so for about 20 min we flew in circles trying to find it. Well I started understanding why Kali didn't feel so good, because I started feeling really sick, It was mainly from just the change of altitude but it was also from going in circles. ( the reason we were going in circles is so that we could find the pockets of air) So we just decided to land because we just couldn't get it to work. ( it sucked) Well after we landed I layed down for about 10 min then he asked if I wanted to go up again, long enough for him to go up and then go around for a minute and then land the plane at the hanger. So I went again but this time I went in a much older plane, It was very different. It was alot more bumpy with the take off and the landing. It also wasn't nearly as comfortable as the plane that I went on first, it was a newer plane and it felt like you were laying and relaxing. While we were in the air I flew the plane for a short time but then it was time to land. When we landed that was right when Katharina came to get us. So first we got pictures and then we thanked Valentin's dad for taking us and then we left. On the way back we watched all the video clips that we had taken they are hilarious. ( We were told that it is very cool to take a video of your face as you take off. So we did!) After we dropped Kali off at Quinn's and then we went back and had dinner. After dinner we rode our bikes to Quinn's and helped Kali pack her stuff. When she was packed we watched a movie called "Made of Honnor" It was good. When it was over Anna, Laura, and I rode back home. Then Anna and I stayed up talking a while befor we finally went to bed.
