Hang-gliding  (Nov 19 '06)
Yes, I really did it. The gliders and parasails launch from Pedra Bonita (Pretty Rock) about 1700 ft (520 m) up, and take 10-15 minutes sailing down to land on a beach. The drive up to the top on ...

A pretty good crowd on weekends, not surprisingly. Weekdays were nice, and usage was downright sparse on the few overcast days, even though it was still plenty warm. Low attendance was great ...
