The paragliding launch just under the lower square in Motovun is getting busier and busier. It was quite windy today, and an Austrian group of paragliders showed up around noon. I saw “Icarus” written on the T-shirt of the man who appeared to be their leader. And I saw twelve of them launching one after another. One of them ended up in the woods under the ramp, but this caused only a small delay. A few of the paragliders were pretty good both on takeoff and in the air, most were so-so, but a few were not good at all. Actually, one of them struggled around buildings time and time again. I wonder how long will it take for an unfortunate one to be suspended from the communal palace or the tower. This is bound to happen, too. It is only a question of time, as that T-shirt I saw today spelled out in no uncertain terms.
