The crash landing!

The last leg of our tour arrived and this morning we travelled from Ipoh to Penang. On our way to Penang we stopped at yet another Mosque and another Royal Palace in a royal town called Kuala Kangsar. A royal town is the former capital of the province  Perak.
The state of Penang consists of the island, and a  strip of land covering 760 square metres. On arrival we checked into our hotel, The Flamingo, and the rest of the afternoon was enjoyed on the beach or next to the pool.
Miss Marais and I decided to be very adventurous and tandem para sail. As you know there is no skill, to this activity at all - until you land. It is quite important to focus and watch the instructor when you come in to land. As we approached the landing phase of our adventure, the instructor yelled: "Pull". This instruction was followed by us waving at the rest of the group on the beach, they were not waving, but trying to get us to look at the instructors. After several slaps to the leg from me, Miss Marais started pulling on the said ropes. The next instruction was:"Start running". All I could think of was how many people break legs when landing parachutes, so I decided to pull my legs up. Needless to say we drifted completely off target and the instructors came running after us. I managed to land very softy - on top of poor Miss Marais (photographic evidence will soon follow).
Another great day in Malaysia.
