I hopped in my car and drove back to the Bay Area last week. It was a long drive but it?s good to be home. Not much has been happening?I?ve just been hanging out.
In my endless pursuit to find something to do, we went to a hookah lounge on Height and checked out the hookah. Actually it was the first time I?ve been to one of these lounges and it was cool. I haven?t seen any of these places in the Northwest but I?m sure it?ll catch on. HookahCulture.com has a complete list of hookah lounges near you.
I also started this paragliding class. So far, I?m not too satisfied with the class and my future with this activity will probably be short lived. A friend was taking the class and convinced me to take it with him. I?ve skydived several times, (almost a 100) so I?ve had a significant amount of canopy time. Overall paragliding is like skydiving except extremely slow and lacking any adrenaline (the sole reason I find skydiving enjoyable). The ram air parachutes are twice the size of a typical skydiving rig and likewise are twice as heavy to carry around. We haven?t been allowed to do anything besides practice takeoffs, but we?ll see how the next day goes.
