Today I went for a ride in this tiny little gyrocopter. Another first for me.
and I took this photo of Jackal’s Den.
We even got to see a giraffe when we were flying over the reserve. It was very hard to keep the camera still enough to take pictures. We only flew for about 20 minutes. It was hot and windy and we bounced all over the sky. I was not too nervous but did feel a little green around the gills by the time I got my feet back on the ground. I would like to do it again sometime but probably early in the morning on a cooler day 🙂 Still, it was a wonderful opportunity.

Interesting seeing the aerial view.

A great experience. I don’t take well to small craft flying either. Got bounced around in a Beachcraft Baron over the Umfolozi Valley on a hot day once.

Lovely to see your place from above – I can get far more perspective that way 🙂
Lucky you to have a ride in a gyrocopter – wonder if I would be brave enough – if the reward would supersede the fear…?
